Editor in Chief of Global Citizenship Review Dr. Christian H. Kälin has launched his highly anticipated book Ius Doni in International Law and EU Law to much praise.
Providing a comprehensive analysis of the ius doni concept in both international and EU law, Kälin’s book explores in detail the legal and political concepts of citizenship and introduces a new term for what is already an increasingly common and accepted practice of granting citizenship on the basis of substantial contributions to a state.
In Ius Doni in International Law and EU Law, Dr. Christian H. Kälin establishes the concept of ius doni in the contemporary legal and political theorising of citizenship. Providing a comprehensive analysis of the subject, it discusses the legal and political concepts of citizenship. It also introduces a new term for what is already an increasingly common and accepted practice of granting citizenship on the basis of substantial contributions to the State. Consisting of two main parts – law and practice – the monograph analyses the ius doniconcept in both international law and EU law, further tests its application in practice and establishes best practices among states. Finally, the book discusses the conceptual and practical implications for citizenship.
Kälin, a frequent writer and speaker on the subject of investment migration and (co-) author of several other publications, including the Global Residence and Citizenship Handbookand the Henley & Partners — Kochenov Quality of Nationality Index, is widely regarded as the industry’s foremost thought-leader.
