The idea of global civil society

Descripción

"This book evaluates the claim that we need to take global civil society into account if we are to understand the changing social foundations of global power relations today, particularly if we wish to raise ethical questions about the changing political and institutional practices of trans-national governance." "Bridging the normative concerns of political theorists with the historical and institutional focus of scholars of international relations and international political economy, this book will be of broad interest to students and researchers concerned with international relations, civil society, global governance and ethics."--Jacket.
