The Oxford Handbook of Citizenship Summary

The Oxford Handbook of Citizenship by Ayelet Shachar (Director, Max Planck Institute for the Study of Religious and Ethnic Diversity, and Professor of Law and Political Science, University of Toronto)

Contrary to predictions that it would become increasingly redundant in a globalizing world, citizenship is back with a vengeance. The Oxford Handbook of Citizenship brings together leading experts in law, philosophy, political science, economics, sociology, and geography to provide a multidisciplinary, comparative discussion of different dimensions of citizenship: as legal status and political membership; as rights and obligations; as identity and belonging; as civic virtues and practices of engagement; and as a discourse of political and social equality or responsibility for a common good. The contributors engage with some of the oldest normative and substantive quandaries in the literature, dilemmas that have renewed salience in today's political climate. As well as setting an agenda for future theoretical and empirical explorations, this Handbook explores the state of citizenship today in an accessible and engaging manner that will appeal to a wide academic and non-academic audience. Chapters highlight variations in citizenship regimes practiced in different countries, from immigrant states to 'non-western' contexts, from settler societies to newly independent states, attentive to both migrants and those who never cross an international border. Topics include the 'selling' of citizenship, multilevel citizenship, in-between statuses, citizenship laws, post-colonial citizenship, the impact of technological change on citizenship, and other cutting-edge issues. This Handbook is the major reference work for those engaged with citizenship from a legal, political, and cultural perspective. Written by the most knowledgeable senior and emerging scholars in their fields, this comprehensive volume offers state-of-the-art analyses of the main challenges and prospects of citizenship in today's world of increased migration and globalization. Special emphasis is put on the question of whether inclusive and egalitarian citizenship can provide political legitimacy in a turbulent world of exploding social inequality and resurgent populism.

The Oxford Handbook of Citizenship Reviews

The definitive source on a critical concept in political and social life. Innovative in its conception and authoritative in its execution. * J.H.H. Weiler, NYU School of Law *
This is an invaluable Handbook. No other single volume achieves the theoretical acuity, historical depth, legal grounding, and sociological analysis of citizenship that this book manages to achieve. It is clear, wide ranging, and admirably un-parochial in the range of its references. By focusing on a wide range of citizenship claims, from those of dominant groups seeking to exclude to marginalized groups struggling for legal recognition, the Handbook enlarges our sense of the moral stakes and political struggles at the heart of citizenship. * Pratap Bhanu Mehta, Centre for Policy Research *
The diversity of disciplinary perspectives and the combination of both theoretical and empirical approaches ... sets The Oxford Handbook of Citizenship apart from other comparable volumes. * Timothy Jacob-Owens, European Journal of Legal Studies *
An excellent starting point for the study of some of the main challenges and prospects informing citizenship in today's world. * Zakaria Sajir, Ethnic and Racial Studies *
A robust, modern guideline to induce creative and pragmatic discussions about some of the most pressing issues we currently face. * Global Citizenship Review *
