Eric D. Weitz examines the inherent tension between the universal aspirations of human rights and the exclusionary nature of the modern nation-state. By tracing the historical development of citizenship and sovereignty, the author illustrates how the state has functioned simultaneously as a protector of rights and a primary agent of their systematic denial across global borders.
