Reproducing Citizens: family, state and civil society

The book brings together scholars of citizenship from across Europe, the Americas and Australia to develop feminist and queer analyses of the relationship between citizenship and reproduction, and to explore the ways in which citizenship is reproduced. Contributors examine the biological, sexual and technological realities of natality, and the social realities of the intimate intergenerational material and affective labour that is generative of citizens, and that serve to reproduce membership of, and belonging to, states, nations, societies and, thus of "citizenship" itself. This book was published as a special issue of Citizenship Studies.
