Understanding Social Citizenship by Peter Dywer
The government is now promoting citizenship heavily, and it is now part of the secondary schools national curriculum. This text provides students of all levels with a clear sense of the history of citizenship, and also of the key theoretical debates that have informed contemporary understandings of the concept.
An excellent introduction to current debates about citizenship and the only general social policy text on the subjectHighly recommended. Students will certainly benefit from reading this book. Nick Ellison, Department of Sociology and Social Policy, University of Durham This exciting new series will be essential reading for students across a range of subjects and courses who need to gain a comprehensive understanding of welfare issues. It is evidence of the coninuing commitment of the Social Policy Association to support the development of learning and teaching in Social Policy and related fields. Pete Alcock, Professor of Social Policy and Administration, University of Birmingham
Peter Dwyer is Lecturer in Social Policy at the University of Leeds. His research interests centre on a critical engagement of notions of citizenship, especially in relation to welfare, and more recently, migration.
