| Tiivistelmä: | The paper proposes a variety of alternative interpretations of the actual function of the passport. It argues that the passport is not just a legal document - it is both a symbolic one which serves to uphold a cultural definition of national identity, and a political one which may serve to legitime processes of exclusion. This is discusses within the context of contemporary world society, the erosion of nation-state borders, and transnational flows of people and practices. |
