Over the last two decades, scholars have investigated norms of citizenship by focussing primarily on ‘dutiful’ and ‘engaged’ norms. In the meantime, contemporary democracies have witnessed growing demands for more sustainable styles of living and increasing public support for authoritarian and populist ideas. These developments point to both a change and an expansion of conventional understandings and conceptions of what a ‘good citizen’ in a democratic polity ought to do. Specifically, they raise questions about whether demands for more sustainability and increasing support for populist ideas establish new facets of democratic citizenship, and if so, how they can be meaningfully incorporated into existing images of citizenship. This study provides a re-conceptualization of citizenship norms and empirically tests a new measurement instrument using original data collected in Germany in 2019. The empirical application of an expanded set of items demonstrates the existence of more variegated facets of norms of citizenship, including norms to safeguard a sustainable future and distinct populist facets emphasizing the relevance of trust in authorities and experts as well as reliance on feelings and emotions. Contemporary conceptions of citizenship thus go beyond conventional distinctions between dutiful and engaged norms of citizenship.

在民主变革时期重新审视公民规范

在过去的二十年里,学者们通过主要关注“尽职”和“参与”规范来研究公民规范。与此同时,当代民主国家见证了对更可持续生活方式的日益增长的需求,以及公众对威权主义和民粹主义思想的越来越多的支持。这些发展表明对民主政体中“好公民”应该做什么的传统理解和概念的改变和扩展。具体而言,他们提出了关于更多可持续性的需求和对民粹主义思想的更多支持是否会建立民主公民的新方面的问题,如果是这样,他们如何才能有意义地融入现有的公民形象。本研究重新定义了公民规范,并使用 2019 年在德国收集的原始数据对一种新的测量工具进行了实证检验。扩展项目集的实证应用表明,公民规范存在更多样的方面,包括维护可持续的未来和独特的民粹主义方面,强调对权威和专家的信任以及对感情和情感的依赖的相关性。因此,当代公民的概念超越了尽职和参与的公民规范之间的传统区别。包括保护可持续未来的规范和独特的民粹主义方面,强调对权威和专家的信任以及对感情和情感的依赖的相关性。因此,当代公民的概念超越了尽职和参与的公民规范之间的传统区别。包括保护可持续未来的规范和独特的民粹主义方面,强调对权威和专家的信任以及对感情和情感的依赖的相关性。因此,当代公民的概念超越了尽职和参与的公民规范之间的传统区别。
