Titel: The political incorporation of EU foreigners before and after Maastricht: the new local politics in Germany
Auteur: Klopp, Brett

Inhoud: In this paper I argue against recent models of post-national and transnational membership that claim that the national-state model of citizenship has been superseded by a new type of membership, one that guarantees individual rights via international human rights norms. Second, I introduce the notion of reciprocal integration to explain the mechanisms of long-term resident alien (denizen) political incorporation that have contributed to the gradual transformation of national state citizenship. The local incorporation of long-term resident aliens has helped to weaken the link between historical ethno-cultural definitions of nationhood and citizenship, and it is in fact contributing to an emerging multicultural definition of 'German' citizenship. Despite the difficult and lengthy naturalisation procedures in Germany, the foreigner population has become increasingly involved in various forms of political participation. The paper focuses on both the pre- and post-Maastricht formal inclusion of EU foreigners in the local politics of Frankfurt am Main. I present ethnographic data from a foreigners' parliament discussion of 'common history' and a Frankfurt Green Party strategy session following the first local elections to include EU foreigners as both voters and candidates.
