In 'The Community of Citizens,' Dominique Schnapper explores the modern idea of the nation as a unique political project, born in the 18th century. This project seeks to integrate all individuals into a political community, defending it internationally. The nation aspires to be an ideal community of equal citizens, ignoring ethnic, regional, cultural, linguistic, and religious particularities. Schnapper invites us to rediscover the nation as a basic framework for coexistence, questioning its future in the face of the rise of particularisms and the confusion between civic duties and consumer rights.
Dominique Schnapper was a member of the Constitutional Council of France from 2001 to 2010.
