Abstract
The citizenship principle is again in. Citizenship is defined by status, identity, virtues and the ideal of social cohesion. Citizens are viewed as subjects, clients and participants. The text describes the dilemmas about the various dimensions of citizenship. Contemporary adult education as part of lifetime education is closely linked to the citizenship principle, particularly active citizenship. In its various forms it aids in establishing active citizenship and is altered in the process.
