In 1787, revolutionaries in Philadelphia invented a new political identity: citizenship in a large-scale constitutional democracy. That combination, once new and rare, is today being imitated around the globe. Yet despite its great prestige, constitutional democratic citizenship is fraught with tensions that are becoming ever more acute. In conjunction with the DCC Program — now the Andrea Mitchell Center for the Study of Democracy — the University of Pennsylvania Press seeks to publish the best empirical and normative explorations of citizenship, democracy, and constitutionalism from scholars in many disciplines, including political science, law, history, sociology, philosophy, anthropology, communications, literature, and education. Professor Rogers M. Smith, former Chair of the Executive Committee of the DCC Program, was Series Editor along with Mary L. Dudziak (Emory Law).
