i.e. it is an internal member, and can only be accessed from a class deriving from this class.

All these answers are backwards: protected internal is available to derived classes OR other objects in the same (or InternalsVisibleTo) assembly. What you want is not possible and as Eric Lippert points out, not really useful, or at the least, something you shouldn't expect anytime soon: http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ericlippert/archive/2008/04/24/why-can-t-i-access-a-protected-member-from-a-derived-class-part-three.aspx

there is a protected internal access identifier. You can use that.

Just use both access specifiers..

    protected internal void method()
    {
    }
