Having conceptualised the two systems; the two systems then featuring in tension with each other, one would thrive and the other decline.

“When You Go There You Become Someone Else, When You Come Here You Become Again Another Person; Wherever You Go You Are Nothing”: Exploring Identity at the ‘Borderlands’
Based on an ethnographic study I conducted in 2012/13 in Western Thrace and drawing on Gloria Anzadua’s (1987) understanding of ‘the borderlands’ I analyze how people from the Western Thrace minority community find themselves between what I term their ‘stepmother’ land Greece and their motherland Turkey, how they experience a double non belonging to both and how they ‘return home’ in the literal and metaphorical borderland of their community in Western Thrace.Contemporary Architectural Discourses, Subaltern Spatial Practices and the Resistance to National Identifications

By elucidating the legal aspects of citizenship and nationality in domestic law and of identification through citizenship in international law, I will argue that the introduction of European Citizenship can be interpreted as a great achievement or "invitation" to political turmoil in the EU.
The Interplay of Privacy and Identity in Digital Communication
Based on an analysis of identity in digital media, I show that the aspects that are kept private or made public contribute substantially to a person’s identity. Consequently, I argue that privacy is not a space for identities but rather a feature of identities. Thus privacy is political from the outset.
