Citizenship studies is at a crucial moment of globalizing as a field. What used to be mainly a European, North American, and Australian field has now expanded to major contributions featuring scholarship from Latin America, Asia, Africa, and the Middle East.
The "Routledge Handbook of Global Citizenship Studies" takes into account this globalizing moment. At the same time, it considers how the global perspective exposes the strains and discords in the concept of citizenship as it is understood today. With over fifty contributions from international, interdisciplinary experts, the "Handbook" features state-of-the-art analyses of the practices and enactments of citizenship across broad continental regions as well as deterritorialized forms of citizenship . Through these analyses, the "Handbook" provides a deeper understanding of citizenship in both empirical and theoretical terms.
This volume" "sets a new agenda for scholarly investigations of citizenship. Its wide-ranging contributions and clear, accessible style make it" "essential reading for students and scholars working on citizenship issues across the humanities and social sciences."
