Reviews

Statelessness and Citizenship has been Shortlisted for this year's BSA Philip Abrams Memorial Prize. Statelessness and Citizenship is a meticulously researched and theoretically ground-breaking study. Victoria Redclift provides us in her monograph not only with a compelling and vivid portrait of Bangladesh's largely forgotten Urdu-speaking minority, but also with a highly original and provocative discourse on the nature of citizenship itself . - Prof. David Lewis, London School of Economics and Political Science, UK Statelessness and Citizenship is a an eloquent and impassioned exploration of the shifting boundaries of citizenship in today's ever changing global environment. It is a book of feeling but also of reflective depth that will arouse the interest of those who are concerned to know more about the realities of being stateless and struggling to be heard . - Prof. John Solomos, Department of Sociology, University of Warwick This volume addresses the position of the `stateless' Bihari minority in Bangladesh and the intersection of postcolonial legacies of displacement and discrimination with contemporary models and practices of citizenship. It is a fascinating piece of work that combines theoretical sophistication of political theory with rich ethnographic material . - Prof. Michael Keith, University of Oxford, UK
