ABSTRACT
Passport policy was firmly embedded in the market paradigm, as became particularly apparent in the white paper. Since passport policy was about borders, it involved questions of police and security and hence contributed to citizenship practice spilling over into the areas of justice and home affairs. This chapter shows how member states' concerns about security impacted on the realization of passport policy because security concerns were often in conflict with such practical considerations as abolishing passport controls at internal community borders. During the Fontainebleau period citizenship practice was being built on three factors: the market paradigm, a new ambitious commission and an expanded citizenship acquis. The chapter briefly recalls the overall story of citizenship practice during die Fontainebleau period and then summarizes the changed citizenship acquis in particular. It explores the interrelation between market making and polity-formation as always underlying once an economic space is considered to live up to the standard expectations of liberal democratic polities.
