Summary:'Informative and useful.' Development and Change Until recently most civil society organizations (CSOs) operated at national or local levels. However new global organizations and networks are increasingly emerging. This book examines what CSOs can achieve and the barriers they face when they break national boundaries and sectoral moulds and work with others in global networks. A series of case studies of CSO initiatives reveal how transnational action can yield impressive results in changing policies and public attitudes. The diverse range of CSOs studied includes consumer groups trade unions.
