(12,283 posts)i reread your post and it appears your defining aparthied as the differnence between citizenship and nationality.
well it doesnt take much research to discover that its a huge subject that many countries have multiple definitions for it and dont use it as defining their countries as "apartheid"
hence if your defining apartheid as the difference between a national and citizen, you might as well declare the UK, US etc all apartheid states....
you'll have to do better to convince someone who hasnt drunk the kool-aid or who knows how to use google. Of course like i wrote, some people believe israel laces chewing gum with AIDs,
In a number of countries, nationality is legally a distinct concept from citizenship, or nationality is a necessary but not sufficient condition to exercise full political rights within a state or other polity.[1] Conceptually, citizenship is focused on the internal political life of the state, and nationality is a matter of international dealings.[5]
United States nationality law defines some persons born in U.S. outlying possessions as U.S. nationals but not citizens. British nationality law defines six classes of British national, among which "British citizen" is one class (and the only one having the right of abode in the United Kingdom). Similarly, in the Republic of China, commonly known as Taiwan, the status of national without household registration applies to people who has Republic of China nationality, but do not have an automatic entitlement to enter or reside in the Taiwan Area, and do not qualify for civic rights and duties there.
The concept of citizenship, too, has a broad range of meanings that stretch beyond its core as a legal status. In various academic literatures, citizenship presupposes the existence of democratic institutions of government and refers to a bundle of legal or moral rights and obligations or to individual and collective forms of participation in the public realm. While we acknowledge the importance of linking the literatures on citizenship as a legal status to these broader sociological and normative debates, we limit our use of the concept to its legal core meaning.
