View the Table of Contents. An admirably clear, concise and
entertaining survey of the different forms citizenship has taken
from ancient to modern times. --Keith Faulks, author of Citizenship
An excellent historical account of citizenship . . . Heater's work
has a depth and solidity that is missing elsewhere. This is another
excellent book from the leading authority in the field. --Ian
Davies, author of Talking Politics From Plato to Rorty, A Brief
History of Citizenship provides a concise survey of the idea of
citizenship. All major periods are covered, beginning with Greece
and Rome, continuing on to the Middle Ages, the American and French
Revolutions, and finally to the modern era. Heater effectively
argues that we cannot begin to understand our current conditions
until we have an understanding of the initial idea of the citizen
and how that idea has evolved over the centuries. Important topics
covered include how citizenship differs from other forms of
sociopolitical identity, the differences between nationality and
citizenship, and how multiculturalism has changed our ideas of
citizenship in the twenty-first century. This concise and readable
book is an ideal introduction to the history of citizenship.
