In an increasingly globalized world of collapsing economic borders
and extending formal political and legal equality rights, active
citizenship has the potential to expand as well as deepen. At the
same time, with the rise of neo-liberalism, welfare state
retrenchment, decline of state employment, re-privatization and the
rising gap between rich and poor, the economic, social and
political citizenship rights of certain categories of people are
increasingly curtailed. This book examines the complexity of
citizenship in historical and contemporary contexts. It draws on
empirical research from a range of countries, contexts and
approaches in addressing women and citizenship in a global/local
world and covers a selection of diverse issues, both present and
past, to include immigration, ethnicity, class, nationality,
political and economic participation, institutions and the private
and public spheres. This rich collection informs our understanding
of the pitfalls and possibilities for women in the persistence and
changes within the contours of citizenship.
