Talk of citizenship today is often thin and tinny. The word has a faintly old-fashioned feel to it when used in everyday conversation. When evoked in national politics, it's usually accompanied by the shrill whine of a descending culture-war mortar.

-- Eric Liu 刘耀威

今天关于公民身份的讨论常常是空洞无物的。这个词在日常会话中有一种略微过时的感觉。当它在国家政治中被唤起时，通常伴随着文化战争迫击炮轰鸣而来。
