Past Perfect! With Maarten Prak

10-02-2022

In this interview with Maarten Prak, hosted by Karen Culver, they discuss Maarten’s book "Citizens without Nations: Urban Citizenship in Europe and the World c. 1000-1789". Maarten discusses how urban citizenship functioned in medieval and early modern Europe. He argues that activities related to being a citizen as well as formal citizenship status ensured that citizenship was much deeper and wider than many people assume. He demonstrates how this definition of citizen impacts urban and national governance in the period before 1789. This interview was made in cooperation with the CEU Democracy Institute’s on-line journal Review of Democracy.
