These questions will be analyzed in this paper. By the use of a description and an analysis of these phenomena, we will focus on the discursive construction of citizenship. By focusing on the construction of citizenship and (national) identity, this study opens a new perspective of the historical-discursive analysis, which so far has only been focused on the discursive construction concerning difference
