Postmodern Discourse Analysis of Citizenship Tests: The Cases of the United States of America and the United Kingdom

Öz


 Citizenship tests are used by states as a tool of naturalization and migration policies. In this paper, a brief discourse analysis of citizenship tests which can be called as an “entrance gate of naturalization” of two most immigrant-receiving countries in the world with their development level and other reasons, the United States and the United Kingdom, are examined. Accordingly, the discourse of the questions those countries ask in the tests and the features they regard as significant to put forward are focused on. Although some examples are given from some European countries when necessary, the main emphasis is given to the case countries. The main reason why these countries are selected is that they are both English as native language and have long term experience in such tests. In the analyses and comparisons, links with the discussions in the literature and on the political grounds will also take part.
