Citizenship in Transnational Perspective

Jatinder Mann is Assistant Professor in History at the Hong Kong Baptist University.

“This is an excellent edited book. By exploring the issue of citizenship in three settler states through the dual lenses of ethnicity and indigeneity, it makes a significant contribution to the literature.” (Luc Turgeon, British Journal of Canadian Studies, Vol. 32 (1-2), 2019)“Citizenship in Transnational Perspective is a meticulously edited collection that presents thought-provoking and most innovative challenges to citizenship and Indigenous studies. Its comparative approach in particular is of great value for showing how much citizenship regimes are both nationalized and, at the same time, influenced by wider, transnational mechanisms.” (Oliver Haag, Journal ofNew Zealand & Pacific Studies, Vol. 06 (2), October, 2018)
