Civil society has become a dominant concept in politics and the social sciences. But what does it mean in practice? How does it relate to more familiar ideas like voluntary action? This book explores the connections between the two and provides a wide range of examples of situations in which civil society has provided an arena for voluntary association and action which has had a real impact on events at local, national and global levels.
