Conclusion.This book is an exploration of American citizenship, emphasizing the paradoxes that are contained, normalized, and strengthened by the gaps existing between proposed policies and real-life practices in multiple arenas of a citizen's life. The book considers the evolution of citizenship through the journey of the American nation and its identity, its complexities of racial exclusion, its transformations in response to domestic demands and geopolitical challenges, its changing values captured in immigration policies and practices, and finally its dynamics in terms of the shift in state power vis-à-vis citizens. While it aspires to analyze the meaning of citizenship in America from the multiple perspectives of history, politics, and policy, it pays special attention to the critical junctures where rhetoric and reality clash, allowing for the production of certain paradoxes that define citizenship rights and shape political discourse. .Political sciencePolitical sociologyAmericaPolitics and governmentPolitical SciencePolitical SociologyAmerican PoliticsPolitical science.Political sociology.AmericaPolitics and government.Political Science.Political Sociology.American Politics.323.60973Momen Mehnaazauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut892039BOOK9910300522603321The Paradox of Citizenship in American Politics1992210UNINA01342nam0 22002891i 450 UON0048414420231205105301.680978-88-645-3333-920171229d2016 |0itac50 baitaIT||||a |||||ˆLe ‰pubblicazioni dell'Istituto per l'Europa orientalecatalogo storico (1921-1944)Gabriele MazzitelliFirenzeUniversity Press2016372 p.24 cm.001UON003875652001 Biblioteca di Studi Slavistici210 FirenzeFirenze University Press32Istituto per l'Europa Orientale <Roma>Pubblicazioni1921-1944CataloghiUONC092859FIITFirenzeUONL000052016.947BIBLIOGRAFIE E CATALOGHI DI STORIA DELL'EUROPA ORIENTALE RUSSIA22MAZZITELLIGabrieleUONV145678117665Firenze University PressUONV266087650ITSOL20260220RICASIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO E ARCHIVIO STORICOUONSIUON00484144SIBA - SISTEMA BIBLIOTECARIO DI ATENEO E ARCHIVIO STORICOSI FL 1 0095 SI 24580 7 0095 Pubblicazioni dell'Istituto per l'Europa orientale1740601UNIOR
