"While the lineage of 'civil society' is long and varied, its revival on the global stage in the 1980s and 1990s following the popular upheavals in Eastern Europe and elsewhere has been characterized by excitement, energy, and some degree of hype. Now perceptions about civil society are maturing. Greater thought, strategy, and reflection have come to replace automatic assumptions of doing good and occuppying the moral high ground vis-a-vis the state and other actors." ---- from the Foreword (Kumi Naidoo and Aruna Rao)..
