1 Spring 2014 Peter Breiner Pos 603, Contemporary Political Theory: Political Equality and Citizenship This seminar will focus on theories of political equality and citizenship and whether we should study the concepts analytically or in the contexts in which political equality and citizenship are fought out. The course will tend to favor the latter direction, focusing on the tensions between citizenship and the market in the struggle over the welfare state and beyond, the tensions between general theories of political equality and theories based on pluralism), the tensions within neo-republican models of citizenship and the demands for democratic participation, the tensions between citizenship as protest vs citizenship as participating in deliberation, the tension between national citizenship and immigration, and the tension between national and cosmopolitan citizenship. The underlying principle of the course is that political equality as equal citizenship is expansive prompting its proponents to extend it into constantly new areas whether in the economy, in civil society, in the provision of social rights, maximum inclusion of all residents of a nation, in offering transnational membership. It thus provokes proponents of inequality in those areas to resist this process. This expansive nature of equal citizenship leads to the fact that the meaning of citizenship and political equality is constantly contested. This course should be of interest not just to students in political theory but also those students in other subfields such as American and Comparative Politics who are dealing with matters of democracy, political equality, and citizenship. We will start with an assessment of the analytical approach to political equality and then turn toward a classic political-sociological approach to citizenship, that of T. H. Marshall, who views citizenship as both a development social rights and as part of a struggle with the market and social class. We will then turn toward updated versions of the Marshall argument by examining a)various arguments about how and to what degree the principle of political equality also requires social and economic equality and b) the claim that equal citizenship demands roughly equal distribution of political resources. This discussion will lead us toward Robert Dahl=s recent works that takes up the latter argument as the basis for inquiring into how or indeed whether or not, effective participation can be reconciled with a pluralist concept of democracy. We will then examine the strategies conservatives use to undermine social citizenship and reduce citizenship to a narrow concept of political and civil rights. From this point on we turn to a variety of democratic theories that try to deepen or expand the concept of citizenship beyond that set by Marshall: among them theories that claim citizenship requires a deliberative concept of democracy; theories that claim that a republican model derived from negative liberty as non-domination can reengage citizens despite the large scale of nation states; theories that claim we must reshape citizenship to accommodate immigrants; theories that claim democratic citizenship can only flourish if we embed citizenship in the concept of the nationality; and recent arguments for a cosmopolitan citizenship that supersedes all civil society or state-centered notions. Finally, (time permitting) we take stock of these various concepts of citizenship and political equality that argue democracy can never be institutionalized and therefore the scope and meaning of citizenship will always be contested.

Each member of the seminar will have to give at least two presentations on the readings. I will select volunteers from week to week. Your presentation should have at least three components: 1) it should lay out the argument at hand; 2) it should discuss how the argument fits in with the theme of the course as well as arguments we have already discussed; 3) and it should critically assess the strengths and weakness of the argument both conceptually and empirically. You also are to prepare an outline of the argument and your assessment of it to be handed to other members of the class at the time of your presentation. 2. There will be a series of smaller critical exercises of 3-4 pages that I will assign as we go along. 3. Each member will be responsible to write a long research paper of 20+ pages. This paper
7 should take one of the strands of argument on the theory of political equality and democratic citizenship and critically map out and assess the various directions this strand has taken. For example, you may write a paper working out the various arguments for and against global citizenship, or for and against the notion that political equality demands the extension of social rights in opposition to the market, or for and against citizenship based on cultural rights. Or you may seek to critically address the redefinition of political equality by one of the concepts of citizenship. You may, want to write a paper arguing that an adequate concept of democratic citizenship requires a fusion of several concepts, but, if you do so, you will have to discuss the possible costs as well as benefits of such a combination. In preparation for this paper you must read widely in the area you select for examination. I have provided suggestions for further reading in the syllabus. You should choose your area of research early in the semester. 4. Finally, it will be expected that you come prepared ready to discuss the readings. I am assuming that students in the seminar have some acquaintance with democratic theory, but even if not, I have assigned a short overview book, Richard Bellamy, Citizenship: A Very Short Introduction, that should bring you up to speed on the ongoing discussion of citizenship. Office Hours I shall have office hours in Milne 204 from 2-4 on Mondays and Wednesdays but I could also meet with you by appointment. I can be reached at or at pbreiner@albany.edu
