The world we want : restoring citizenship in a fractured age

This book traces the history of the idea of citizenship, and argues for a new model for the next century. In the style of Michael Ignatieff's The Needs of Strangers, Kingwell takes a long look at what citizenship has meant in the past and what it means today.
