'Global Civil Society 2001 is an accessibly written and user-friendly yearbook study ... there is an excellent collation of data about various dimensions of global civil society that can be used by researchers or students ... The book is genuinely interdisciplinary. For students and teachers and for researchers looking for helpfully compiled data this is an excellent resource.' -International Sociology
'The extensive tables that make up the final third of the book are often stimulating and suggestive.' -John Dunn, Times Higher Education Supplement
'A fine new book on global civil society that could not have come out at a more relevant moment.' -The Guardian,
The Global Civil Society Yearbook is envisaged as a landmark publication, which will discuss and clarify the concept of a 'global civil society'. The Yearbook will contribute to the debate about what global civil society is, map and measure it, and examine each year how it is doing.
