From 'People' to 'Citizen'

The book brings together social theory with policy practice to enlarge our understanding of democracy. It focuses on the specific concerns of 'citizenship' where individuals have equal & quality access to health, education and urban services. The emphasis is on empowering 'citizens' as a common category & not 'people' of any specific community/ class. Differences between citizens are not denied, in fact encouraged, but only after achieving a basic unity first. This book argues that the call of citizenship not only advances democracy, but social science as well.Please note: Taylor & Francis does not sell or distribute the Hardback in India, Pakistan, Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
