520 |a Many people see citizenship in a globalised world in terms of binaries: inclusion/exclusion, past/present, particularism/universalism. Aoileann Ní Mhurchú points out the limitations of these positions and argues that we need to be able to take into account the people who get caught between these traditional categories.

Taking a distinctive theoretical approach, she shows how citizenship is being reconfigured beyond these categories.
