The Global Civil Society Yearbook remains the standard work on all aspects of contemporary global civil society for activists, practitioners, students and academics alike. It is essential reading for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the key actors, forms and manifestations of global civil society around the world today.
I am still planning the course, but it likely that I shall list the book as a recommended additional reading. Our library has ordered a copy of book. It may well be that I put a chapter on the essential reading list (i.e. related to a seminar topic for a particular week), but this is TBC.
