Cultivating Membership in Taiwan and Beyond - Relational Citizenship

This book argues that relational citizenship articulates relational membership for individuals, not as a status granted from the state, but as a multilayered interactive process centered on connections to multifaceted histories, peoples, institutions, and future paths. This theory offers strategies to rethink how belongingness is accomplished.
