eoeThe best guidebook to bring is the Uzbekistan volume in the Odyssey series...It is one of those rare travel guides that is a joy to read whether or not you are planning a trip.e, "Howard's illuminating new book studies the politics of citizenship, using a broad comparative approach. He provides a provocative analysis of liberalization in citizenship policy that will be a timely addition to the growing literature on citizenship in general and European Union studies in particular." -Seyla Benhabib, Yale University, "Marc Howard is one of a handful of scholars who takes the empirical study of citizenship policy seriously. In contrast to the many studies indulge in tedious moralizing, Howard provides a truly comparative study of citizenship across Europe, one that draws on both historical and quantitative analysis. His argument - that citizenship trajectory is a function of colonial legacies and party politics - is clear, elegant, and thoroughly convincing. This outstanding book is required reading for anyone interested in citizenship, immigration, or contemporary European Politics." -Randall Hansen, University of Toronto, "Rules concerning citizenship, particularly for immigrants from countries outside Europe, vary extraordinarily...Howard sets out to explain these striking differences, finding that colonialism, despite its manifest cruelty and inequality, had the ironic consequence of spreading egalitarian sentiments in colonial powers....A welcome first step beyond the usual stereotypes about Europe's immigration policies." Andrew Moravcsik, Foreign Affairs, 'Marc Howard's excellent new book pushes citizenship to the center-stage of comparative politics. Crisply clear yet highly nuanced, the book provides compelling explanations of why some European states have recently liberalized their citizenship laws and why some others have not. Howard's skillful combination of quantitative and qualitative methods is social science at its best.' Christian Joppke, The American University of Paris, 'Many authors have described and criticized European citizenship laws and policies. Marc Morjè Howard measures and explains them. Here is finally an analysis of persistent differences and common trends across the European Union based on state-of-the-art comparative political science.'

Rainer Baubck, European University Institute, '… demonstrates the extensive implications of the growing and potentially volatile issue of citizenship policies and immigrant integration. This empirical study of citizenship policy enables a comparative as well as quantitative analysis of citizenship policies across the European countries … represents a valuable resource for other scholars researching this emerging issue, as well as for policy analysts and policy makers coming from the countries that are subject to analysis and from other countries.' CEU Political Science Journal, 'Howard's illuminating new book studies the politics of citizenship, using a broad comparative approach. He provides a provocative analysis of liberalization in citizenship policy that will be a timely addition to the growing literature on citizenship in general and European Union studies in particular.' Seyla Benhabib, Yale University, 'This is the most important book on the politics of citizenship in Europe to appear in many years. Marc Howard examines two questions about citizenship policy that have intrigued several generations of social scientists: how can we account for differences among countries at similar levels development; and how can we account for changes in well-established policies? By combining case studies with a cross-national analysis of fifteen European countries, Howard develops an original, comparative and comprehensive approach for understanding the politics of citizenship.'

It is well written, makes important contributions, and clarifies the direction for future research.'

Synopsis
This book addresses immigrant integration, one of the most critical challenges facing European countries. Howard focuses on the politics of citizenship, showing in particular how anti-immigrant public opinion can block the liberalizing tendencies of political elites, and exploring the far-reaching implications of this growing and volatile issue., In this book, Marc Morj Howard addresses immigrant integration, one of the most critical challenges facing European countries today, the resolution of which will in large part depend on how foreigners can become citizens. Howard's research shows that despite remarkable convergence in their economic, judicial, and social policies, the countries of the European Union still maintain very different definitions of citizenship. Based on an innovative measure of national citizenship policies, the book accounts for both historical variation and contemporary change. Howard's historical explanation highlights the legacies of colonialism and early democratization, which unintentionally created relatively inclusive citizenship regimes. The contemporary analysis explores why some of the more restrictive countries have liberalized in recent decades, whereas others have not. Howard's argument focuses on the politics of citizenship, showing in particular how anti-immigrant public opinion - when activated politically, usually by far right movements or public referenda - can block the liberalizing tendencies of political elites. Overall, the book shows the far-reaching implications of this growing and volatile issue., In this book, Howard addresses immigrant integration, one of the most critical challenges facing European countries, the resolution of which will in large part depend on how foreigners can become citizens.
