Citizenship and minority rights. 7. Feminism and citizenship. 8. Expanding citizenship. 9. Citizenship and globalisation. Conclusion. References. Index. The struggle of the disadvantaged and the marginalized for rights as well as improved conditions and especially the rights of citizenship is a prominent thread running through the history of the west. Political theorists have been writing about citizenship for over two thousand years and it has been practiced for even longer. No wonder therefore that the concept and status of citizenship have accumulated a complex variety of interpretations. However no age before ours has had such a widespread and pressing need to understand these accounts. Modern citizenship has developed not only as a consequence of popular democratic pressures but also in response to the ruling class's requirements for security a factor ignored by many theorists of citizenship. Today citizenship is generally taken to include a universal right to a level of economic and social well being in addition to the rights of equality before the law and political participation. Modern citizenship comprising at least universal civil political and social rights is not only complex but fraught with internal tension as the distinct right which constitute it tend to generate different and sometimes contradictory pressures. This book explains why an understanding of citizenship rights is important for social and political analysis and goes no to treat both the relationship between the distinct elements of citizenship and its effects on class inequality on social and political integration and on the structure and operation of the state. Current approaches to modern citizenship began with the publication by T.H. Marshall's Citizenship and Social Class in 1950. This book dealing directly with the historical development of modern citizenship and its social and political consequences offers a distinctive interpretation and critique of H.H. Marshall's theory and makes a modest contribution to the debate generated by Marshall. 374 pp.…
