The authors adopt a broad range of research approaches, from testing hypotheses drawn from rationale choice theory against available statistics on associations, to ethnographic study of emerging attempts at participant / deliberative democracy. Divided into three clear sections, focusing on the following core aspects of civil society:
• the position of civic organizations between state and society in emerging forms of governance
• the geographical scales of social movement mobilizations and actions from the local to the global
• the patterns of public trust and civic engagement that falls under the rubric of social capital.
