Studies in Global Justice and Human Righ Retheorising Statelessness: A Background Theory of Membership in World Politics, (Hardcover)

Applies international political theory to statelessness as an ethical and political concern
Stateless persons are increasingly a concern of governments, international agencies and NGOs. Now, Kelly Staples supplies a much-needed political theorisation of statelessness. Her membership theory framework combines theory and contemporary case studies to demonstrate the connection between state membership, the burdens of statelessness and the situation of stateless persons.
