المستخلص

This research aims to explore the potential interpretations of citizenship across seven years starts in 2011 and ends in 2017. The exploration focuses on the Egyptian media through three of the most popular online newspapers, “Al-Yom Al-Sabea, “Al- Masry Al- Yom” and “Al- Watan”. The research is an attempt to detect the possible development of citizenship concept in its three main facets of rights that includes the civic, the social, and the political aspects, besides the two dimensions of duties toward the state and the society. Three hypotheses suggest no correlation between presenting any citizenship facets and the discursive arguments that have been used to underpin articles about citizenship rights and duties.
The findings indicate rejection of the three hypotheses with limited exceptions that are connected to the varied circumstances of the analysed year. The main conclusion is that there is an evidence that direct significant correlations exist between citizenship rights and duties debates and using a certain discursive argument as a persuasive framework.
