这篇文章建议，公民身份不应被视为个人获得、失去或拒绝的地位。相反，它是一种在日常物质互动中产生和复制的新兴和关系能力，涉及从工作到生活方式实践的一系列活动。我们考察了这种物质互动的一个例子：年轻人与性教育的接触。为了帮助这一努力，我们应用了一个新的唯物主义的关系框架，该框架解决了人与非人类物质之间的微观政治互动。使用两项性教育研究的数据，我们评估性教育互动过程中产生的能力--例如表达特定性欲或主动管理生育能力--除其他外，如何有助于年轻人成为公民。根据这一分析，我们认为，社会学可能会有用地应用自下而上的公民身份模式，因为公民身份是由不同的参与构成的。
This article suggests that citizenship should be seen not as a status to be acquired, lost or refused by an individual. Rather it is an emergent and relational capacity produced and reproduced in everyday material interactions, across a spectrum of activities from work to lifestyle practices. We examine one example of such a material interaction: the engagements that young people have with sexualities education. To aid this endeavour, we apply a new materialist, relational framework that addresses the micropolitical interactions between humans and non-human materialities. Using data from two studies of sexualities education, we assess how the capacities produced during sexualities education interactions - such as a capacity to express specific sexual desires or to manage fertility proactively - contribute inter alia to young people's 'becoming-citizen'. Informed by this analysis, we argue that sociology may usefully apply a bottom-up model of citizenship as becoming, constituted materially from diverse engagements.
