Bridging State and Civil Society : Informal Organizations in Tajik/Afghan Badakhshan, Hardback Book

Bridging State and Civil Society : Informal Organizations in Tajik/Afghan Badakhshan Hardback

Hardback

Description

Bridging State and Civil Society provides an in-depth study of parts of Central Asia and Afghanistan that remain marginalized from the larger region.

As such, the people have developed distinct ways of governing and surviving, sometimes in spite of the state and in part because of informal organizations.

Suzanne Levi-Sanchez provides nine case studies, each an independent look at a particular informal organization, but each also part of a larger picture that helps the reader understand the importance and key role that informal organizations play for civil society and the state.

Each case explores how and by what rules the informal organization operates and what roles it provides in local governance by exploring its structure and how it interacts with official state institutions, civil society, familial networks, and development organizations.

As such, each chapter explores the concepts through a different lens while asking a deceptively simple question: What is the relationship between informal organizations and the state?
