Contemporary transformations of citizenship, in particular those associated with the changing role of the nation state under globalization, have been responsible for bringing spatial questions to the fore. The outstanding book provides the first coherent examination of the spatialization of citizenship practices.

Placing emphasis on understanding the material practices and performances of citizenship in everyday life, it examines contemporary transformations in citizenship practice at a range of spatial scales from the global and national, to regional and local. Wide-ranging content reflects the breadth of the author's research interests on sexual citizenship, migration, cosmopolitanism and consumption, and make it a valuable reference for those in the fields of geography, cultural studies and sociology.
