Summary: This wide-ranging, multidisciplinary collection of original papers explores the link between globalisation, citizenship and the war on terror. Ideas from sociology, criminology, political science and development studies are incorporated into the contributors' examination of the nature of globalisation and the war on terror. Using theoretical frameworks, analysing current issues and reflecting on existing literature and past events, they illustrate how the processes of globalisation and the war on terror are shaping and defining citizenship both globally and within nation states.
