Summary
War and Citizenship examines how European states treated enemy aliens during wartime from the French Revolution through World War I. Daniela Luigia Caglioti explores how wars transformed the legal status of foreign nationals living in belligerent countries, analyzing policies of internment, expulsion, and property confiscation. The book investigates the tension between international law and national sovereignty, showing how wartime measures against enemy aliens shaped modern concepts of citizenship and national belonging. Drawing on extensive archival research across multiple countries, Caglioti demonstrates how these practices evolved and ultimately redefined the relationship between individuals and the state in times of conflict.
