The focus throughout is on accessibility, with no previous knowledge of the subject being assumed. Key Features * Unique in its historical coverage of citizenship in Britain - moving from the Middle Ages to the present day * Reveals the great complexity of the development of citizenship in Britain * Leading campaigners, politicians and theorists enliven the story and analysis * Demonstrates the importance of an historical perspective in understanding the issue of citizenship in Britain today
