"Crisis of the Republics” by Suchitra Vijayan

"Crisis of the Republics” is a meditation on the nature of borders, camps, and carceral citizenship in the aftermath of 9/11. The keynote returns to fundamental questions about citizenship, statelessness, and the future of nation-states. It links the many crises facing republics around the world and provocatively asks if we can dare dream of citizenship that exists as “collective freedom”, outside the boundaries of nationalism.
