All people have a homeland and citizenship. You can not live by registration. You can not love your country and declare it at every step. But you will still be a citizen. However, there is a category of people who deny the institution of citizenship - cosmopolitans.
Theoretical base
Cosmopolitan puts the interests of Mankind above the interests of the Homeland. Absolute freedom is the creed of cosmopolitan. According to J. R. Saul, cosmopolitanism is a worldview and cultural attitude aimed at understanding the unity of the world, universalism.
Socrates expressed ideas preceding the ideas of cosmopolitans. Cosmopolitan declared himself Diogenes. The school of cynics preached the idea of autarchy, independence from the state. The Stoics developed cosmopolitanism. The Middle Ages removed it underground, to alchemy, but did not drown it. Immanuel Kant saw in cosmopolitanism the final outcome of the development of civilization, and Voltaire anticipated the idea of the European Union, saying that European countries should create a common federation.
The twentieth century, with its upheavals, world wars and the flourishing ideas of socialism and humanism, provided fertile ground for the development of cosmopolitan teachings. One of the results of the world revolution, according to Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, was to be a single world republic. In 1921, Eugene Lanty founded the Worldwide Non-National Association (SAT), whose task is to contribute to the disappearance of all nations as sovereign unions and the use of Esperanto as a single cultural language. The opportunity to become a “citizen of the world” appeared for people with the advent of Nansen passports, issued to refugees and certified by official means.
