Editorial Reviews

Review

‘A profoundly original book. Prak shows how much of what historians and social scientists think they know about citizenship and the rise of democratic politics is simply wrong. Uncovering the errors that have blinded so many, he proceeds to construct a historically grounded foundation for a new understanding of the meaning of citizenship that instructs us about the past and the present.' Jan de Vries, University of California, Berkeley

‘This is a major contribution to emancipating citizenship from the nation. Tracing varieties of citizenship before its invention as nationality, Prak makes a compelling case for understanding citizenship as a practical activity without binary oppositions: European versus non-European, urban versus rural, or national versus international. The result is a riveting narrative, forcefully inviting us to think differently and historically about citizenship.' Engin Isin, Queen Mary University of London

‘This is a large, richly researched, provocative study which repositions the pre-modern city, its citizens and agencies, at the centre of the European political stage. It is a brilliant exemplar of the New Urban History, setting European developments in a broad global perspective.' Peter Clark, University of Helsinki

‘In this wide ranging and bold book, Maarten Prak offers a penetrating analysis of urban citizenship in pre-modern Europe. He both revises a Weberian narrative about the distinctiveness of western European civic institutions in comparison to those in Asia and the Americas and undoes assumptions about the superiority of national citizenship post-1789.' Martha Howell, Columbia University, New York

‘The book is based on a lifetime of research in urban history, and the material is presented with clarity, concision, and enormous authority.’ Christopher R. Friedrichs, The American Historical Review

Book Description

Examines how urban citizenship gave many people a real stake in their own communities, even before the rise of modern democracy.
