Citizenship in Transnational Perspective: Australia, Canada, and Aotearoa New Zealand

This edited collection brings together leading and emerging international scholars who explore citizenship in a transnational perspective in Australia, Canada, and Aotearoa New Zealand, through the two overarching themes of Indigeneity and ethnicity. The contributors to this collection approach the subject from a range of disciplinary perspectives: historical, legal, political, and sociological. Therefore, this book makes an important and unique contribution to the existing literature through its transnational, inter- and multidisciplinary perspectives. The edited collection includes scholars whose work on citizenship in settler societies moves beyond the idea of inclusion (fitting into extant citizenship regimes) to innovative models of inclusivity (refitting existing models) to reflect the multiple identities of an increasingly post-national era, and to promote the recognition of Indigenous citizenships and rights that were suppressed as a formative condition of citizenship in these societies. The edited collection includes early career, mid-career, and established citizenship scholars from a broad range of cross-disciplinary and cross-sector perspectives to address these thematic goals.
