Abstract: The article aims to offer elements for reflection on the complex relationship between citizenship and the Constitution. In contrast to traditional legal approaches, this study focuses on the ambiguities, tensions and conflicts that occur between, on the one hand, demands for the guarantee and extension of citizenship rights and, on the other, the Constitution. Considering its relevance in the scenario of modern constitutionalism, we have chosen to limit the object of the investigation to the American constitutional experience. The work proposal was developed in three stages. Initially, a critique of the legal perspective of citizenship was proposed, highlighting its limitations in the face of social claims and disputes for the expansion of fundamental rights. Then, the possible antagonism between the Constitution and citizenship is highlighted. The final stage involves the presentation of aspects of the U.S. Constitution that are refractory to citizenship, and an example of unjust decisions by the U.S. Supreme Court, to the detriment of citizens. Despite its relevance, there is little academic production dedicated to the problematic of the antagonism between the Constitution and citizenship.
