Civil society is receiving renewed attention from academics,
politicians, journalists, community leaders, and participants in
the voluntary sector. Civil Society, Democracy, and Civic Renewal
brings together several of America s leading scholars of history,
sociology, political science, and philosophy to explore the meaning
of civil society, its positive and negative effects, its relation
to government, and its contribution to democracy. The chapters
range widely, taking up the connection between social trust and
civic renewal, the role of citizen councils in environmental
decisionmaking, the growth of self-help groups and their impact on
community, historical patterns of civic activity by women and
African Americans, and the place of expertise in public
deliberation on scientific and medical issues. By examining the
many disparate views of the civil society debate, this important
volume will contribute to the process of civic renewal."
