This publication focuses on the challenges faced by civil society
to remain sustainable in response to major changes in the global
political, economic and social environment. Academics and
practitioners from all over the world have contributed original
articles, practical notes and viewpoints which critically examine
the ways in which civil society organisations are affected by and
are responding to political and financial dynamics. These include
reductions in traditional external aid for civil society
activities, but also the growth of new forms of funding through
social enterprise, philanthropy, fundraising and contractual
relationships with national government. The operating environment
for civil society is a central theme, with authors exploring the
legitimacy and credibility of different types of civil society
organisation, as well as the effects of legislative and regulatory
restrictions on their sustainability. The contributions finally
examine new opportunities for civil society and the prospects for
organisations to emerge that are less dependent on foreign aid
funding, that are more embedded in local communities, and that can
bring about lasting and sustained social and economic change. This
book was originally published as a special issue of Development in
Practice.
