Citizenship matters more than ever.\u003cbr style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;\"\u003e \u003cbr style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;\"\u003eIn this book, Elizabeth F. Cohen and Cyril Ghosh provide a concise and comprehensive introduction to the concept of citizenship and evaluate the idea’s continuing relevance in the 21st century. They examine multiple facets of the concept, including the classic and contemporary theories that inform the practice of citizenship, the historical development of citizenship as a practice, and citizenship as an instrument of administrative rationality as well as lived experience. They show how access to a range of rights and privileges that accrue from citizenship in countries of the global north is creating a global citizenship-based caste system. \u003cbr style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;\"\u003e \u003cbr style=\"font-family: Verdana, Geneva, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 11px;\"\u003eThis skillful critical appraisal of citizenship in the context of phenomena such as the global refugee crisis, South-North migration, and growing demands for minority rights will be essential reading for students and scholars of citizenship, migration studies and democratic theory.\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthors:\u003c\/strong\u003e Elizabeth F.
