This collection of essays engages with the central theme in scholarship on EU citizenship - the emancipation of certain citizens and the alienation of others.

The essays seek to interrogate whether similar debates and trends can be identified in other fields of European integration.

The book construes 'EU Citizenship' in its broadest sense, and explores the extent to which the European citizen is, or indeed is not genuinely at the heart of EU law and policy-making.

Refreshing new takes on EU law.
