NEW BOOK Shaping Globalization: Civil Society, Cultural Power and Threefolding by
Nicanor Perlas Civil Society has become a major power in the world. This has been demonstrated recently in the stunning defeat of the WTO agenda in the Battle of Seattle and the collapse of the controversial and secretive Multilateral Agreement on Investments (MAI) of the OECD. The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development is the club of the richest governments in the world. Civil Society joins the State and the Market as the key institutions that are now shaping globalization and sustainable development. But civil society has a problem. |
