The correct answer is C. Informed and active membership in a political community.

Explanation:

The term "citizenship" refers to the membership or status of the individuals that live and belong in a community or nation as well as the role this implies. Due to this, citizenship is not only defined by belonging to a nation and therefore being protected by the law or voting in elections but also by participating actively in the community especially in term of politics. This means the citizenship implies being informed about the events that occur in the community and participate actively to improve the community itself. Thus, citizenship refers to informed and active membership in a political community.
