What does it mean to be Italian today? Is it just about ancestry, or should it be about culture, values, and identity? In this first episode of Voices of Italy, we’re diving into one of Italy’s most controversial and complex topics: citizenship.
We’ll explore what it really takes to deserve the label “Italian.” Why is Italian citizenship such a hot topic? And how does this clash with the diverse and globalized world we live in today?
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Feelings about Italian identity.
- A critical look at “jus sanguinis” (citizenship by blood) and whether it still makes sense.
- What it means to kep our current laws
Whether you’re an Italian craving a realistic narrative of your country on international media, part of the global diaspora, or someone curious about what it means to belong in today’s Italy, this episode will get you thinking about identity in a whole new way.
