This volume responds to the need to extend the theory of
citizenship, in order to bridge the gap between the public and the
private sphere. Through the application of intersectional
methodology, the authors document how people's most private
decisions and practices are intertwined with public institutions
and state policies. The stories of intimate citizenship included in
this volume make the theoretical discussion more palpable. Situated
perspectives, as well as application of theoretical concepts to
lived experience, extend citizenship's territory beyond the
conventional public sphere and locate it at the intersection of
many axes of social, political, and cultural stratification.
