- Summary:
- US scholars of sociology, urban planning, and political science explore the changing shape of citizenship, the role of cities in shaping it, and the struggles that inevitably define it. Among their perspectives are remaking urban citizenship, towards a new infrastructure of political belonging, the urban basis of immigrant rights struggles in Amsterdam and Paris, public-private partnerships and immigrant rights in San Francisco, state rescaling and the strange odyssey of Chicago's Mexican Hometown Association, and political moments with long-term consequences.
