Citizenship After the Nation State
The book is the output from a multi-sponsor international project conceived and led by Jeffery. In a series of workshops Jeffery led on the development of ideas on regional dimensions of citizenship and methodological nationalism that guided survey design and fieldwork and the country-based and comparative analyses in the book. Jeffery authored the introduction, co-authored the UK chapter and worked intensively with all other authors in producing final chapter texts.
The introduction of this book, ‘Regional Public Attitudes beyond Methodological Nationalism’, overlaps with the chapter authored by Jeffery and Wincott The Challenge of Territorial Politics: Beyond Methodological Nationalism (published in Hay 2010 New Directions in Political Science). The Jeffery/Wincott chapter sets out a ‘manifesto’ for work on regional politics ‘beyond methodological nationalism’. The co-edited book reports on an international research project which addressed that manifesto. Its introductory chapter reiterates and develops the three themes in this ‘manifesto’ (as summarised on p. 177 of Jeffery/Wincott), as a basis to introduce the research design for the project and to set out preliminary findings then dealt with at length in other chapters.
