Linking Civil Society And The State
The role of local government became more important as Latin American countries moved away from state-led development models in the 1980s, and social movements helped to bring about a transition to democracy. This book, based on research in low income districts of Lima, analyses the relationship between a resurgent civil society and democratization.
