The workings of these exceptional programs have caused controversy in real-life politics, ranging from protests, to the downfall of politicians, and to punitive bilateral and international measures. Even so, knowledge on why countries would put their citizenship up for sale has remained limited. This study combines insights from political science and legal theory to develop an original approach to understand states\u2019 propensity to adopt investor citizenship policies as part of the offshore world, or the legal spaces of \u2018archipelago capitalism\u2019. We leverage a novel global longitudinal CBI dataset (1960\u20132023) to probe the empirical plausibility of this argument. In line with our expectations, we find that microstates, middle-income countries, and tax havens are more likely to implement CBI programs. CBI supply reflects a contemporary form of small state ingenuity.      <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D\u017eanki\u0107, Jelena; Seyfettinoglu, Mira; Shachar, Ayelet; Vink, Maarten; Baaren, Luuk van der (2025): \u201eThe Archipelago Capitalism of Citizenship-By-Investment\u201c.
