For many commentators, global civil society is revolutionising our
approach to global politics, as new non-state-based and border-free
expressions of political community challenge territorial
sovereignty as the exclusive basis for political community and
identity. This challenge 'from below' to the nation-state system is
increasingly seen as promising nothing less than a reconstruction,
or a re-imagination, of world politics itself. Whether in terms of
the democratisation of the institutions of global governance, the
spread of human rights across the world, or the emergence of a
global citizenry in a worldwide public sphere, global civil society
is understood by many to provide the agency necessary for these
hoped-for transformations. Global Civil Society asks whether this
idea is such a qualitatively new phenomenon after all; whether the
transformation of the nation-state system is actually within its
reach; and what some of the drawbacks might be.
