Civil Society Responses to Changing Civic Spaces, Paperback / softback Book

Civil Society Responses to Changing Civic Spaces Paperback / softback

Edited by Kees Biekart, Tiina Kontinen, Marianne Millstein

Part of the EADI Global Development Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

This open access book contributes to thriving debates in academic as well as professional circles about the role of civil society in shrinking civic spaces, rising authoritarianism and right-wing populism, conflicts, fragile states, and most lately, the global COVID-19 pandemic.

This is one of the first books to address the implications of changing civic spaces for civil society organizations worldwide.

It offers a unique overview of how social movements and civil society groups in very different settings are responding to state-imposed restrictions of basic civic freedoms.

The authors are all experts in the field, and their analyses are based on original and onsite research.

This unique book also contributes to a better understanding of the conceptualizations and practices of civil society.

It is of keen interest to academic scholars, students, civil society practitioners, and policy makers in the field of international development research and civil society action.
