ABSTRACT
The concluding chapter explores the broader implications of the issues raised in the previous chapters. It first argues for the continued use of classic theory and for the value of making use of distanciation to allow it to speak to scholars today in ways unimaginable when it was first published. Second, it proposes that the challenges fragmentation causes for the provocation of disruptive effects are likely to be more acute for unaffiliated citizens than for institutions. Third, it argues for the value of promoting citizenship understood as a way of being-with-others grounded in listening and existential openness to the other.
