More about the book

Exploring the evolution of Canada's Citizenship Act, the book highlights how birth-based citizenship shapes political belonging, challenging the notion that liberal democracies are built on consent. Lois Harder examines the interplay of gender, family, sexuality, and national identity in defining citizenship, while critiquing racial hierarchies and settler colonialism. The work culminates in a discussion on alternative models for political community, questioning the adequacy of birth-based citizenship and envisioning more democratic and equitable approaches.
