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.
