Book SynopsisTrade Review"Editors Nancy J. Hirschmann and Deborah A Thomas in
Citizenship on the Edge open the door to discussions that go beyond the assumptions of citizenship rights to explain how singular and compounding social inequalities make citizenship unstable and precarious around the world. This comprehensive, multidisciplinary volume breaks down the complex relationship between sex, gender and race, and the liberal conception of citizenship and democracy. Contributors from a plethora of perspectives reveal the harsh truth of obtaining and maintaining citizenship within the social, economic, and political realms while confronting negative societal backlash." * Ethnic and Racial Studies *
