Summary

A new exploration of the impact of globalization upon citizenship with a special focus on key transnational challenges can be found in this book. This book also examines how different concepts, theories and practices of citizenship are evolving in response to globalization and that seek to modify its impact. Central questions explored include: * How does globalization challenge traditional conceptions of citizenship in specific respects? * How is globalization creating new citizenships or new civil society spaces? * What are the theoretical and practical prospects for new forms of liberal, republican and cosmopolitan citizenship? * How is transnational citizenship developing and what problems are associated with it in specific areas? *What is the significance for globalization of domains which are not being globalize and the role for forms of citizenship which react against or ignore globalization?
