Throughout Europe longstanding ideas of what it means to be a
citizen are being challenged. The sense of belonging to a nation
has never been more in flux. Simultaneously, nationalistic and
racist movements are gaining ground and barriers are being erected
against immigration. This volume examines how concepts of
citizenship have evolved in different countries and varying
contexts. It explores the interconnection between ideas of the
nation, modes of citizenship and the treatment of migrants.
Adopting a multi-disciplinary and international approach, this
collection brings together experts from several fields including
political studies, history, law and sociology. By juxtaposing four
European countries - Britain, France, Germany and Italy - and
setting current trends against a historical background, it
highlights important differences and exposes similarities in the
urgent questions surrounding citizenship and the treatment of
minorities in Europe today.
