Full Description

As evidenced by the immense global mobilization against the war on Iraq, which arguably influenced the actions of government leaders, global civil society is now established as a major player on the international stage. This yearbook is the standard work on the topic, useful for social scientists and activists working on globalization from below. It opens with a chapter on the state of global civil society in 2003, discussing the mushrooming of social forums and the growth of a global anti-war movement. It contains contributions from Ulrich Beck and Martin Shaw on the need to globalize our thinking, a chapter by Meghnad Desai and Yahia Said on trade and the anti-capitalist movement, and a chapter by Mary Kaldor and Diego Muro-Ruiz tackling the "dark side" of global civil society: religious and nationalist militant groups. Further chapters discuss global civil society efforts to outlaw biological and chemical weapons; the campaign to combat violence against women; transnational peasants' movements; and the legal environment for global civil society.
