Study for the feasibility of a legal instrument in the field of nationality law and families (including the promotion of acquisition of citizenship)

Over the past years, there has been a notable increase in attention paid to legal issues in relation to the family dimension of loss and acquisition of nationality in Council of Europe member states. These are numerous and of considerably complexity. These legal issues are a result of the combined effects of demographic changes in Europe, such as increasing levels of mobility, decreasing fertility, increasing life expectation, changing family norms and practices as well as legal and policy responses to all these issues.
