Citizenship and the State in the Middle East
Angebote / Angebote:
As a response to processes of globalization, regional integration and ethnic conflicts, the study of citizenship has regained new interest among social scientists and legal experts. This approach focuses on the relationship between the state and the people -- as individuals and collectivities, citizens and non-citizens -- living within its borders. Citizenship defines the terms of rights and obligations in a society, regulates political participation and access to public goods and properties. Together with its companion volume, Gender and Citizenship (forthcoming in Fall 2000), this book represents the first systematic critical attempt to interpret the complex nature of Middle East politics from a citizenship perspective. The work provides both theoretical contributions and case studies, and includes a significant section on Israel and Palestine.
