On 5 November 2020, we launched our new Civil Society book series with Policy Press.
This new series provides interdisciplinary and comparative perspectives on the rapidly changing nature of civil society at local, regional, national and global scales.
The first four books draw on research findings from our previous ESRC Civil Society Research Centre.
In the run up to the event, the authors published a series of blogs:
- Civil Society and the Family – Esther Muddiman, Sally Power and Chris Taylor
- Civil Society through the Lifecourse – Sally Power
- Putting Civil Society in its Place: Governance, Metagovernance, and Subjectivity – Bob Jessop
- The Foundational Economy and Citizenship – Filippo Barbera and Ian Rees Jones
