Your country for sale?: Understanding the citizenship by investment
Journal Title: Journal of Human Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 15, Issue 4
Abstract
Where is the cheapest place to buy citizenship? With this question used as a heading in a BBC News Business section, by the reporter Kim Gittleson, New York, We got an idea of writing an academic paper concerning this issue, which is very controversial.Some people call it citizenship for sale and others call it citizenship by investment; but what is really the difference? This is a scheme of acquiring citizenship rather than yours in case you accept to pay a predetermined sum of money or under a form of investment, it is only made to attract rich individuals and raise the revenues of that country you are applying for citizenship.In this paper, we will analyze this kind of acquiring citizenship in comparison with the normal way of gaining another country’s nationality within the spirit of international human rights law.
