Claim-making - the everyday strategies through which citizens pursue rights fulfilment - is often overlooked in studies of political behavior, which tend to focus on highly visible, pivotal moments: elections, mass protests, high court decisions, legislative decisions. But what of the politics of the everyday? This Element takes up this question, drawing together research from Colombia, South Africa, India, and Mexico. The authors argue that claim-making is a distinct form of citizenship practice characterized by its everyday nature, which is neither fully programmatic nor clientelistic; and which is prevalent in settings marked by gaps between the state's de jure commitments to rights and their de facto realization. Under these conditions, claim making is both meaningful (there are rights to be secured) and necessary (fulfillment is far from guaranteed). Claim-making of this kind is of critical consequence, both materially and politically, with the potential to shape how citizens engage (or disengage) the state.

About the book >.>.> Claim-Making in Comparative Perspective: Everyday Citizenship Practice and Its Consequences by Janice Gallagher explores the often-overlooked strategies through which citizens seek to fulfil their rights. This work addresses the politics of the everyday, diverging from the conventional focus on visible events such as elections and protests. Drawing on research from diverse countries including Colombia, South Africa, India, and Mexico, Gallagher investigates how claim-making stands as a unique form of citizenship practice that exists outside formal political frameworks, being neither entirely programmatic nor clientelistic.The author argues that this form of claim-making emerges in contexts where there is a disparity between the formal commitments of the state to guarantee rights and the actual fulfilment of those rights in everyday life. Under such circumstances, the act of claim-making becomes vital, not only as a means to secure rights but also as a fundamental approach to engaging with the state. This practice holds significant political and material implications, influencing how citizens interact with governance structures, potentially leading to either greater civic engagement or a sense of disconnection from political processes.The book situates itself within the broader discourse on citizenship, particularly relevant for scholars and practitioners interested in political behaviour within developing countries. By shedding light on the importance of everyday citizenship practices, Gallagher provides insights into the nuanced ways citizens navigate their rights and the implications of these actions for political dynamics. The Element series, edited by Rachel Beatty Riedl, comprises contributions that address both established and emerging topics in the politics and political economy of developing nations, underscoring the significance of Gallagher's analysis.
