The book presents a convincing argument about the intersection of nation and citizenship. But it should really be an essay as the book spends large amounts of time repeating itself

Rogers Brubaker examines the bounds of citizenship in France and Germany. He argues that French citizenry was defined expansively, as a territorial community, while Germany citizenry was defined as a community of descent. He explains how the historic notion of citizenship - especially the differences between jus soli and jus sanguinis - affected the assimilation of second (third and fourth) generation immigrants living in the two countries during the 1980s.

Citizenship and Nationhood in France and Germany presents a reasonable schematic approach to the nature of belonging to a country and, in that, it should be commended. However, the book bases most of the pre-1871 German case on looking at Prussian citizenship, and Brubaker leaves out any talk on the role of cultural nationalism.
