C zen iu is a member of a city, while part of the sovereign power (otherwise, would only be a subject ) and is subject to it (otherwise it would be the king.) Cities can exist without democracy. But are cities without citizens (Compte Sponvile "Philosophical Dictionary")
Achieving status as a citizen to have taken a long time. The development of this concept is linked to the achievement of equality and individual freedoms. This achievement has not yet widespread, it has been occurring in different stages at the same time in each were appearing new inequalities.
The fundamental feature that distinguishes the citizen has no such condition is involved power; the citizen is not subject or, if so, what is the law. While representative democracy does not have the strength of the original direct democracy is, though flawed, at present, preferred system of government, however, citizenship, civil society, is holding a possibilities for action and commitment, involvement, which must be seized; otherwise citizen because from time to time giving the vote to representatives, is a poor and insufficient exercise .
