Rezensionen

"The case studies in this book present very diverse and rich empirical data and analyses. Each chapter is strong, giving a good historical overview of citizenship policies in the respective countries, while at the same time they also focus on developments over the last few decades. ... The book is an important and useful addition to the literature on citizenship education, national identity, and diversity." (Necla Acik, Sociology, Vol. 50 (1), 2016)
