Product Overview

The duties and rights of citizens are recognised within society and the state, and in the age of globalisation—when crossing national, geographical, and social boundaries has become increasingly easy—the question of citizenship has emerged as a key area of discussion among social scientists; across six chapters, this book examines the classical concept of citizenship, its evolution and diversity, the impact of globalisation, and the idea of global citizenship, while also addressing recent debates on citizenship in India, and through an appendix that includes the Citizenship Act, 1955 and the Citizenship Amendment Act, 2019, it helps students develop a clear understanding of the subject. Written in accordance with the CBCS syllabus for the DSE course, this book will also appeal to general readers interested in contemporary debates on citizenship.
