Why read it?
1 author picked Class, Citizenship, & Social Development as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Marshall provides a very interesting analysis of the development of human rights.
He identifies three developmental stages: First the rights referring to property, freedom of speech, and freedom to religious beliefs and practices. Second the rights to vote and be elected in parliament and third the development of social rights (decent education, health care, and social welfare for old age). His analysis is focused in England.
But as a general overview is very useful for the study of citizenship.
From Nicos' list on social sciences.
