520 _a"This publication documents how far civil society has come through the past decades and provides a good explanation of what its future role will be in the coming millennium. The thematic underpinnings of civil society examined in this book are globalization, governance, youth participation, women and leadership, sustainable development, religion, poverty, indigenous people, volunteering, and technology. The book strives to assess the health, viability, and role of civil society today and identify key challenges and opportunities facing civil society on a global scale."--Jacket.
