The vulnerability of dual citizenship in Australia | Kim Rubenstein | TEDxFulbrightCanberra

One would think that holding more than one citizenship is a positive position to be in. And for the most part it is! In this talk Kim examines citizenship in a globalized world and explains why she thinks Australia should be affirming the multiple connections individuals have both in Australia and beyond in order to enhance social cohesion. She then discusses her concerns about the trends towards an inequality of citizenship that dual citizens in Australia now experience, through changes to the Australian Citizenship Act in 2015. 1991 Fulbright Postgraduate Scholar to Harvard University; 2002 Fulbright Senior Scholar to Georgetown University.
