The essay explores how global migrations influence citizenship decisions and shape imagined communities. It looks at historical examples like slavery, Chinese exclusion, and U.S.-Mexico migration to understand how legal determinations of citizenship reflect national identity. The authors examine how these cases relate to global migration patterns and the communities that legal citizenship creates.
