Summary
Ideas of citizenship have changed considerably since the concept was first envisioned in classical antiquity (Greece and Rome). For a long time, it remained an uncertain and undefined area – so that, for instance, Aristotle saw no general agreement on a definition of citizenship.1 The citizenship laws of Athens distinguished between citizens, slaves, and non-slave residents (metics), including prosperous and affluent merchants.2 Eventually, the Citizenship Law introduced by Pericles (451 bce) extended the status of citizen to offspring whose parents were both Athenians.
