Abstract
Using case studies of neighborhood organizations in Canada acid Israel , the authors consider relations between neighborhood organizations, t he welfare state, and citizenship rights during the twentieth century. These welfare states display real differences but also enough instruc tive similarities to illuminate the robustness of their argument. Foll owing a theoretical discussion, they identify, primarily on the basis of ethnographic study, five regimes that have produced a distinctive c onjuncture of types of organizations, forms of the welfare state, and outcomes in terms of citizenship rights. With qualifications, they fin d the coproduction, or partnership, model most promising in securing c itizenship rights and urban governability.
