Abstract

      The principle of citizenship expresses the nature of the organic relationship that binds the individual to the homeland in which he acquires his nationality, and the rights and duties imposed by this relationship as stipulated in constitutional and legislative texts.


The Constitution regulates the scope of citizenship rights and duties, as the rights of the citizen are regulated under the provisions of the Constitution, including civil, political, social and cultural rights..

These mechanisms are embodied in the principles of equality and participation
