Civil Society in DemocratizationPeter Burnell, Peter Calvert Routledge, 2004 M03 1 - 256 pages This title brings together competing theories of civil society with critical studies of the role of civil society in diverse situations and the way in which it has been promoted as the key to democratization. The combination of contemporary theory and practical applications provides valuable reading for students of civil society and contemporary social and political change, and its policy implications for Africa, Asia, Europe and Latin America. |
