Özet:
Demand of human being to go to behind of time and space with fast mobilization changed perceptional meaning of time and space. Depending on limited living places, socities identified living places as “country”, identified people who live in the country as “citizen” and identified the citizens of the country as “nation”. Accordingly, the “nation-state” has appeared as the most complicated social institution of a nation and “nationalism” has appeared as common values or “collective consciousness” of the citizens of a nation state.
On the other hand, with globalization and international migration, individuals and societies have swiftly mobilized and started to live in many places simultaneously. Therefore; the people permanently living in more than one nation-state, have believed that they are more than one country's citizen and finally they have more than one citizenship perception and citizenship construction. Accordingly, the meanings of nation-state, nationalism and citizenship have been changing.
