In this paper, citizenship-identity relationship, which constitutes one aspect of the political identity dimension of citizenship, will be discussed. In this context, the approaches that citizenship should gain a universal form by isolating it from local, ethnic and cultural identities will be critically analyzed. The aim of this study is to discuss the political and social organizing assumptions and arguments of individual-based national citizenship and group-based multicultural / global / constitutional citizenship theories. Our basic assumption is that the notion of citizenship of the nation-state cannot be devoid of the historical and cultural values of the country. In this study, literature review method was used and support was obtained from critical discourse analysis.
