Social Justice through Citizenship? [electronic resource] : The Politics of Muslim Integration in Germany and Great Britain /
Lewicki, A.author.
Lewicki examines how current salient discourses of citizenship conceptualize democratic relations and frame the 'Muslim question' in Germany and Great Britain. Citizenship is understood not as a static or monolithic regime, but as being reproduced through competing discourses that can facilitate or inhibit the reduction of structural inequalities.
