T. H. Marshall  

Definition

  • Thomas Humphrey Marshall was a British sociologist renowned for his argument that the development of the welfare state in the twentieth century had introduced a novel form of citizenship—“social citizenship”—which granted to the citizens of modern industrialized states the rights to material resources and social services. Marshall argued that this social citizenship complemented and reinforced the civil and political citizenship that had been won in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, respectively.
