Since the emergence of the dissident "parallel polis" in Eastern
Europe, civil society has become a "new superpower," influencing
democratic transformations, human rights, and international
co-operation; co-designing economic trends, security and defense;
reshaping the information society; and generating new ideas on the
environment, health, and the "good life." This volume seeks to
compare and reassess the role of civil society in the rich West,
the poorer South, and the quickly expanding East in the context of
the twenty-first century's challenges. It presents a novel
perspective on civic movements testing John Keane's notion of
"monitory democracy": an emerging order of public scrutiny and
monitoring of power.
