A panoramic look at the strength of civil society in eight advanced democracies
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
The editor of this volume, Robert D. Putnam, is Peter and Isabel Malkin Professor of Public Policy at Harvard University. He is the founder of the Saguaro Seminar: Civic Engagement in America, a program that has brought together leading practitioners and thinkers for a multi-year discussion to look for ways to develop civic life. The author has received renown and media attention for his previous work on civil society. Putnam's work on the relationship between civil society and democracy led not only to consultations with former President Clinton and President Bush, and the subsequently heavy influence he exercised on two of Clinton's State of the Union addresses, but also to a profile in People magazine. His work has sparked forums among academics for debates on civic engagement. He regularly speaks to audiences of 3 to 500 people about his ideas.
