Civil Society and Democracy in Global Governance
Open accessAbstract
Recent years have witnessed substantial civil society mobilisation on questions of global governance.This paper considers the implications of this development for democracy.After specifying concepts of 'civil society', 'democracy', 'globality' and 'governance', the paper identifies deep democratic deficits that have emerged as a consequence of contemporary globalisation.The discussion then outlines various ways that civil society can either enhance or undermine democracy in the governance of global relations.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
