From Subjects to Citizens

A Hundred Years of Citizenship in Australia and Canada

edited by Pierre Boyer; Linda Cardinal & David Headon

tagged: civil rights
Description

Australia and Canada are both lively, multicultural societies with British constitutional traditions. Historically, they have faced similar challenges in defining and sustaining citizenship that reach back into a common past. They also have similar approaches to address contemporary issues and anticipate the challenges of a 21st century future. New perspectives on the culture and politics of citizenship emerge in this timely text that is essential reading for those interested in the steadily expanding ties between Australia and Canada.
Published in English.
