In Citizenship, Diversity, and Pluralism leading scholars assess the transformation of these two dimensions of citizenship in increasingly diverse and plural modern societies, both in Canada and internationally. Subjects addressed include the changing ethnic demography of states, social citizenship, multiculturalism, feminist perspectives on citizenship, aboriginal nationalism, identity politics, and the internationalization of human rights. Contributors include Heribert Adam (Simon Fraser), Keith Banting (Queen's), Anthony Birch (emeritus, Victoria), John Borrows (UBC), Alan Cairns, Walker Connor (Trinity College), John Erik Fossum (LOS?Senteret, Norway), Virginia Leary (emeritus, SUNY), Denise Réaume (Toronto), Lynn Smith (justice, BC Supreme Court), Charles Taylor (emeritus, McGill), and Jeremy Webber (Sydney, Australia).

Editorial Reviews
"The collection could not be more timely ... its appeal cuts across a number of different disciplines and sub-disciplines within the human sciences ... the combination of theoretical and comparative perspectives singles this collection out." Daniel Weinstock, Department of Philosophy, Université de Montréal.
