During the past ten years the terms public sociology, civil
society, and governance have been used with increasing frequency to
describe a wide array of political and social practices. Nickel
provides a critical clarification of the concepts of civil society
and governance, moving beyond traditional disciplinary boundaries.
With her unique international background in the practice of public
service and social policy Nickel is able to provide a nuanced
explanation of how civil society and governance are interrelated
and the implications for the organisation of knowledge and public
life. The book is framed in three parts. Part one explores the
emergence of public sociology as an ideal, as well as the broader
public turn in the social sciences. Part two explores the changing
relationship between government and civil society, including
non-profit organisations. Part three draws these two themes
together in an exploration of the politics of practice and
relations of power.
