Reviews
'I followed the stages of this book when it was in process and when it was completed for publication. At each time I saw it's importance. I was pleased to recognize that in the Foreword to the book. Now it is in hand. And current American politics make it an even more significant book for an understanding of the United States as a political and social system. The nature of Citizenship - its centrality in elections and in politics and society more generally - make it a crucial feature of American Democracy and the challenge it faces.' Sid Verba, Carl H. Pforzheimer University Professor, Harvard University

Synopsis
Citizenship as Foundation of Rights will interest concerned citizens, educators and political pundits by providing valuable insights into the nature and foundations of citizenship and rights to vote, work and travel. The book explains what it means to have citizen rights and how national identification requirements undermine them., Citizenship as Foundation of Rights explores the nature and meaning of American citizenship and the rights flowing from citizenship in the context of current debates around politics, including immigration. The book explains the sources of citizenship rights in the Constitution and focuses on three key citizenship rights - the right to vote, the right to employment, and the right to travel in the US. It explains why those rights are fundamental and how national identification systems and ID requirements to vote, work and travel undermine the fundamental citizen rights. Richard Sobel analyzes how protecting citizens' rights preserves them for future generations of citizens and aspiring citizens here. No other book offers such a clarification of fundamental citizen rights and explains how ID schemes contradict and undermine the constitutional rights of American citizenship.

    The seller is top-notch, quick replies to any question and made something affordable, which is hard to find here on eBay these days. It’s sellers like this that you click save so you can see what else they’re selling, keeping the confidence of me as a buyer, knowing the description is accurate, and the shipping is sensible. This was a great deal and a very, very happy with the service, shipping and the item that arrived just as described.

    Even though I received the wrong item the seller refunded me very promptly after I informed them of receiving the wrong item. I offered to send the item back if they could send me the postage/shipping prepaid but they offered to let me keep the item as a courtesy which I thought was very nice of them. I hope to use them again in the future.
