Posthuman citizenship

Abstract

Citizenship and the posthuman have not been often theorized together.In this paper, I want to think about their coalition both as a new episode in the efforts of politics for citizenship, including knowledge politics, and as a source of rebalancing power against governmental and corporate interests in citizenship politics.Here, I seek to address two questions: (1) What is posthuman citizenship?(2) What does posthuman citizenship bring to analysis of intersectional, complex, and multi-layered struggles of citizenship?Section I of the article addresses possible conceptual connections between citizenship and posthumanism at the posthuman political system level.Section II concentrates on a posthuman genealogy of citizenship to show why posthuman citizenship is a much-needed ontopolitical praxis.Section III details the main principles of posthuman citizenship with respect to mediation of rights, political agency, and political responsibility.The paper contributes to the understanding of politics of/for citizenship with two concepts: augmented political responsibility and posthuman deeds.
