Abstract: Citizenship is contested, and the dominant frameworks of citizenship in social and political theory have been inspired by liberal, socialist or republican traditions. During the last ten years there has been renewed interest in rethinking the theories of citizenship and in developing a new synthesis between civic republicanism, liberalism, socialism and feminism (Mouffe 1992a; Phillips 1992; Lister 1997a). New research has examined the tensions and dilemmas in the general principles of freedom, equality and fraternity in the classical traditions on the basis of new problems with exclusion and inclusion in modern democracies (Held 1987; Kymlicka 1990; Mouffe 1992a).
