Recenzje

'… an important and timely resource for scholars and practitioners interested in understanding how federalism shapes state citizenship rights. It is well researched and clearly organized, and the book's many useful tables and figures make it recommended reading for those interested in the politics of race, ethnicity, immigration, and federalism.'
