Abstract
[Extract] In my Citizenship and Capitalism (Turner 1986) and 'Outline of a Theory of
Citizenship' (Turner 1990) I attempted to describe a comparative approach to the nature and development of citizenship in modern society but primarily in Western societies. The two dimensions of that model were what we might call the cultural and historical-structural aspects of citizenship. On the one hand, citizenship can either emerge through social struggles, primarily class conflict, for
entitlements or, on the other hand, social and political entitlements can be handed down by the state with the aim of incorporating the working class or marginal social groups into the polity.
