Abstract

The formation and development of the concept of “citizenship” as one of the most important tools for state and national construction is largely due to the historical and ethno-cultural context. As a consequence of the developing centrifugal tendencies in the Ottoman Empire, reforms were undertaken in various spheres of society, including those concerning the introduction of a new community — the national state — instead of the old millet system. The ongoing processes of formation of national-state identity in the Middle East region make it relevant to consider it from various methodological and substantive positions. The article attempts to consider the features of the terminology reflecting the concept of “citizenship” in the Ottoman Empire and its Arab provinces in the historical and linguistic aspect. The European tradition is characterized by the opposition of the concepts of nationality and citizenship, due to the diversity of their emergence, the Arab tradition does not have a direct analogy with the concepts of the nation and the national state.
