Sumario:The aim of this paper is to analyze the concept of citizenship of Niccolò Machiavelli, particularly the influence or effects that the institutions and practices of ancient Rome could have on his conceptualization, fundamentally those that stand out or are perceived in the historical account made by Titus Livy in his text Ab urbe condita. To this end, the concept of citizenship is integrated from Machiavelli's various political writings, especially from the Discourses on the first decade of Titus Livy, from which the most outstanding theoretical features of the concept are identified and compared with the specific passages or elements of Titus Livy’s historical narrative that could serve as a basis or antecedent. This will contribute to the analysis and understanding of the concept of citizenship in modern republics and democracies.
