▼ Civil society is a concept that is originated in the western historical and political traditions. In East Asia, where the idea of separation of the state and society has long been absent, recently there has been a rapid growth of the citizens’ voluntary organizations in China, Japan and South Korea, especially in China. Strong evidence shows that in the three countries since the 1990s the number of non-government organizations (NGOs) has increased at unprecedented speed compared with the previous decades. What is more significant is the fact that, civil society organizations, i.e. citizens’ groups and voluntary organizations are playing an increasingly important role in social and political affairs. Although China, Japan and South Korea have similar cultural traditions, each of them has a distinctive type of civil society. At the same time, the development of the civil societies in East Asia does not readily fit into the conventional wisdom about the evolution of the civil societies in western countries. This dissertation is aimed at seeking an East Asian model of civil society development by looking at the evolution of the civil societies in three East Asian countries: China, Japan and South Korea. By using the “most-similar-case” scenario, the dissertation tries to explain the differences in the momentum of growth and the nature of the NGO (non-government organization) sector in the three countries since the 1990s. Paying particular attention to the growth of the NGO sector in China and comparing the Chinese experience with the recent development of the civil society organizations in Japan and South Korea, the dissertation reveals the major cause(s) for the NGO boom that occurred in East Asian countries since the 1990s to the present, and explains the national idiosyncrasies in the nature of the NGO sector as the result of the institutional constraints. Finally it argues that the recent development of the citizens’ voluntary associations in East Asia is part of the transformation of the developmental state.

▼ This thesis looks at defiance in civil society and aims to contribute towards a deeper understanding of contestation against regimes that restrict the expansion of the political playing field in sub-Saharan Africa. It also analyses the role of contemporary African activists in these contestations, and examines why some social contestation process are successful and others not. The role of Mozambican activists from aid-supported NGOs in relevant political movements between 2010 and 2015 is a key issue. The first part of the thesis offers a theoretical overview of civil society as contesting actor in Africa and Mozambique, and outlines the construction of concepts of civil society latency, defiance and co-construction through a theoretical framework that draws on the literature on moral economy, social movements, contentious politics, the public sphere, power and competitive authoritarianism. Analysis of two contrasting civil society organisations, the LDH (the League for Human Rights) and UNAC (the Mozambican Peasants' Union), aims to give a better understanding of public spaces for participation and defiance, and to follow the movement of activists from urban areas towards traditional indigenous sectors so as to ensure that vital issues for communities are brought into the public sphere. It also looks at the neutralisation processes suffered by organisations that offer support and/or directly organise contestation of government initiatives and policies that have a negative impact on the population. The case studies draw on research over a period of three years in the city of Maputo and the provinces of Nampula, Cabo Delgado, Tete, Zambezia and Manica. They examine the reasons for contestations around land issues between 2010-2015, focusing on peasants' and NGOs' resistance to the ProSAVANA agrarian development project, and on urban protests against abductions and against the 2012-2015 return to civil war, investigating the role of European donors and government in the near destruction of one of the most well-known NGOs in Africa.

▼ This thesis is a dialectical analysis of democratisation in Nigeria focusing especially on the dynamics of social forces operating within the terrains of state and civil society. It revisits the structural link between state and civil society and explores the processes of interaction in these sites between agents contesting the project of democratisation. The study critiques the dominant liberal democracy epistemology and proceeds on the assumption that democracy is a continuing project whose development depends on the outcome of struggles between contesting social forces in the political field. Grounding the mutual penetration between state and civil society in a dialectical perspective, the study links the interactions of political agents with the divergent norms and practices which they struggle to embed in society. More concretely, the work empirically explores the trajectories of struggles to achieve conditions of democratic citizenship in Nigeria and the setbacks to these efforts. In particular, examination of this struggle focuses on political engagements in the contexts of the press, organised labour struggles and organised engagements by political activist groups that pursue dichotomous aims around democratisation. The work tries to find out how these dialectical struggles generate progresses and reverses to democracy in Nigeria’s colonial and post-colonial history. Using qualitative analysis the thesis proceeds from a theoretical plane and pulls together some theories of dialectical relations to construct a neo-Gramscian conceptual tool, which is applied to study Nigeria as a concrete historical instance. Applying the analytical concept of ‘relations of forces’ as a specific use of the dialectical approach, the work explores authoritarian domination in the Nigerian state as a function of the alliance of dominant forces in the integral state (government and civil society) and the relations of these dominant forces with contending social forces within the same terrains. It investigates the strategy of the ruling forces towards the political, civil and social rights that define democratic citizenship and how counterforces engage the state in various contexts for the emergence of a fully democratised civil society. The study also examines the challenges of democratisation connected with its confinement to the attainment of the minimalists’ empirical referents of democracy. Falling back on historical materials, the study focuses on the struggles for democracy in Nigeria’s colonial and post-colonial epochs in relation to the experiences of journalistic actors, organised labour and other organised activists in the political field vis a vis the alliance of forces that controls the Nigerian state. The analysis draws materials mostly from both primary documents and secondary interpretive ones to illustrate the dialectics of democratic struggles in Nigeria. The study reveals that the continuing suspension of democracy in Nigeria draws from the tendency of the ruling forces to subdue democratic forces with coercion.… Advisors/Committee Members: Neilson, David (advisor), Zirker, Daniel (advisor).

▼ It is believed that the civil society leads to the prosperity of western countries. However, itâs worth being noticed that the essential factor should be the Christian faith. Several studies have concluded that there is a significant correlation between Christian faith and civil culture in western countries. That is why countries featured as the post-modern civil society are embedded in the culture circle of Christian faith and why modern Christian countries can set an example for post-modern civil society. In order to investigate the origin of post-modern society, the present study begins with religion which is featured as relatively unconscious. Qualitatively analysis and inference are adopted to infer the spirit of Christian and investigate how Christian life in church develops post-modern society culture. Moreover, comparative method is adopted to compare the differences between Catholic and Christian faith and to investigate the direct impact of Christianity on the transformation from traditional society to post-modern civil society of western countries at the turning point of Protestant Reformation. Additionally, the differences between materialism as well as utilitarianism and traditional ethic belief as well as Christian faith are also compared in order to point out the importance of Christian faith, which is more influential on the transformation of social value qualitatively and quantitatively than materialism and utilitarianism. On the other hand, analysis method is used to analyze the resource of Christian faith, the New Testament, and find out that it has much to do with the characteristics of post-modern society and the origin of social value. Due to the deep analysis and extensive inference, the present study discovers that the elements of Christian faith hidden in post-modern society. Thus, it has been concluded that Christian faith has an impact on traditional value and it also has lots to do with the formation of post-modern society. In addition, Christian faith has developed three major characteristics of post-modern society and it has formed the central belief of post-modern society. Finally, with the analysis of latest news, the proposed statements in the present study have been confirmed.

▼ There is a sizeable lacuna in the literature on civil society activism in authoritarian contexts. My research aims to address this gap by offering a conceptual framework that covers two contrasting forms of activism, i.e. NGO- and citizen-led activism. In particular, the thesis provides a detailed ethnographic account of both NGO- and citizen-led activism in Vietnam and reflects upon the politics of evolving state-society relations in the same country. Analytically, drawing on the relational approach to civil society and mainstream social movement theories, the research focuses on legitimacy, autonomy, as well as formality and informality as the defining characteristics of civil society activism. This framework is applied in the context of Vietnam but arguably can be applied in other authoritarian contexts. This is because these concepts are not only grounded in theories, for they are validated and triangulated through my data collection and analysis. In relation to the NGO-led activism, the thesis showcases a detailed process through which a local NGO orchestrates mobilisation to help local ethnic minorities claim forest land from the state institutions. In relation to the citizen-led activism, the thesis examines a recent broad-based citizen-led movement (the Trees Movement) established to oppose the government's decision to cut down thousands of large old trees lining the streets of Hanoi and to demand government accountability. Whilst the latter displays a transient, time-bound, issue-based and more antagonistic form of activism, the former illustrates a more sustainable, collaborative, embedded form. Both case studies seek to generate regulatory legitimacy for their activism by appealing to the official state agenda and discourse. Yet, critical differences exist between their legitimation strategies. Whilst the NGO focused on generating pragmatic and cognitive legitimacy, the Trees Movement was more concerned with generating normative legitimacy. In seeking to understand civil society activism in Vietnam, this thesis challenges mainstream civil society theories (liberal tradition) that portray an autonomous and conflictual state-society relationship. It also challenges dominant social movement theories (political process theory) that focus exclusively on the dynamics of overt confrontation with the state. By embracing and problematising different forms of civil society activism, the thesis argues that civil society groups under authoritarian regimes like Vietnam, regardless of whether they are formal and registered or informal and unregistered, have to orchestrate their activism within the state agenda and discourse. Since state authority under authoritarianism remains strong and resilient in the face of a strengthening civil society, being embedded in the state is critical because it offers some guarded room for manoeuvre for civil society groups to accomplish collective goals. Existing scholarship on civil society activism in Vietnam has focused on either state or society-led change. This has led to two…

▼ This PhD research is situated in the academic literature on civil society organisations (CSOs) accountability with a focus on self-regulation and beneficiary accountability It investigates normative developments occurring in civil society self-regulation by measuring its effectiveness against the normative expectations set by CSOs. Simultaneously, it questions why CSOs are not getting it right when it comes to dealing with beneficiary accountability. It focuses on a checklist of indicators (CDV) developed by Italian CSOs in the aftermath of the scandal "Mafia Capitale" when threatened by strict government regulation and by critical public opinion. The empirical side of this PhD research relies sequentially on three different sets of methodological tools. This multilayered methodology consists in: a) the application of a blueprint developed by the One World Trust London to test the effectiveness of self-regulation against its own objectives; b) an explaining-outcome process-tracing aimed at providing a sufficient explanation to the fact that the matter of beneficiary accountability is usually ignored within self-regulation; c) a multiple-case study analysis on beneficiary accountability (transparency, participation and complaints procedure) at an intra-organisational level. Empirical data have been gathered during fieldwork in Rome (2017). This PhD thesis contributes to the academic and societal discourse on civil society self-regulation and accountability in several ways. It constitutes the first comprehensive study on CSO's accountability and self-regulation in Italy. It enriches the academic debate on selfregulation by providing a brand-new theoretical model to explain non-compliance together with a series of policy proposals aimed at guiding current discussions on the reform of self-regulation. It provides a minimally sufficient explanation to the fact that CSOs systematically fail to address the matter of beneficiary accountability through self-regulatory instruments, coupled with an explanation of the circumstances under which the matter is likely to be incorporated into selfregulatory norms.

▼ After the 1990s, Japan has been deeply influenced by international trends as well as its own political and economic development. With the traditional Tenno system, Japan confronted the rapid rise and impact of the civilians' social consciousness. The change can be observed and traced back to the period after the Great Hanshin earthquake in 1995, when a volunteering civic engagement started automatically and later spread up the realization and implementation of the Non-Profit Organizations (NPO) Act. Based on my observations regarding legal regulations and institutional changes , this dissertation constructs a society-centered theory to explore and to analyze the relationship between the Japanese government and NPOs during the new period. This dissertation also seeks to explain how civic social ideologies developed and promoted the NPO Act and the establishment of the new JICA. In order to be more precise on the topic, I examine the change and the development by dividing the progress into âtraditional periodâ and ânew periodâ with after the cold war in the 1990s. On reviewing the changes of patterns and features of the development, I study the new interactive modes between state and society. The emphasis of this study is to show how Japan accelerated the NPO and ODA legal regulation and institutional changes. Furthermore, the study discusses how, the unique and new type of intermediate organizations, that support NPOs, developed after the execution of the NPO Act, and how those agencies provided local governments with NPOs cooperative partnership. In addition, this dissertation uses the platform of NPO Center of Chiba Prefecture as a case study, to analyze how to effectively combine members to spread the idea of âNPO Prefecture,â and how to reorganize the system of new JICA in order to adopt outward environment and inward NPO participation. In other words, by demonstrating this new mode of cooperative partnership, the study expects to provide scholars with a reference of relative subjects and hopes to support the development of civil society in the developing countries.

▼ Civil society, according to mainstream democratization literature, has a positive impact on democratic survival and durability. As a critical promoter of democracy, it has proven to limit state power, foster political participation, and enrich associational life. There is however a recent phenomenon among fledgling democratic regimes where mobilization of civil society in alliance with other political actors generated extreme political instability, with some even resulting in the ouster of democratically-elected leaders. These “civil society coups” cast doubt on the status of civil society as unconditional defenders of the democratic order around the world. In this dissertation, I explain the causal conditions and causal mechanisms behind this type of executive interruption and analyze its consequences for a country’s democratization process. I argue that the combination of a historical legacy of military intervention in politics, weakened accountability institutions, and societal infrastructure of political contention create the conditions for a civil society coup to be the outcome of a legitimacy crisis faced by a sitting executive. The causal mechanisms driving these conditions involve civil society’s ability to diffuse political contention and broker coalitions between politicians and the military. These arguments are tested using a mixed-method comparative research design. First, I conduct a qualitative comparative analysis (QCA) of all executive interruptions among third wave democracies in Latin America and Asia from 1974-2010.This method is complemented by a controlled comparison of four countries that experienced successful and failed cases of civil society coups: the Philippines, Venezuela, Bolivia, and Thailand. Another product of this cross-case and within-case comparison is a process-oriented theory that enumerates the different stages of a civil society coup. These are: (1) acts of majoritarian excess by the executive; (2) preliminary civil society mobilization; (3) coup coalition formation; and (4) institutional crisis and military intervention. My dissertation concludes that while civil society coups may not necessarily result in democratic breakdown, they produce unintended consequences dangerous for democratization such as intensified political polarization, an expansion of the military’s political prerogatives, and institutional decay. These findings have implications for strengthening and deepening democratic quality among regimes belonging to the third wave democratization democracies and beyond.

▼ This project seeks to trace the power of social media in serving as a virtual civil society in the Arab world, focusing on Egypt as a case study. This study aims to explore the role of social media in mobilising Egyptian activists across generations, and particularly in reaching out to people under the age of 35 who constitute around 50 per cent of the population. Studies preceding the 2011 uprising reported that young Egyptians were politically apathetic and were perceived as incapable of bringing about genuine political changes. Drawing on a range of methods and data collected from focus groups of young people under the age of 35, interviews with activists (across generations and gender), and via a descriptive web feature analysis, it is argued that online action has not been translated into offline activism. The role of trust in forming online networks is demonstrated, and how strong ties can play a pivotal role in spreading messages via social media sites. Activists relied on social media as a medium of visibility; for those who were not active in the political sphere, social media have been instrumental in raising their awareness about diverse political movements and educating them about the political process, after decades of political apathy under Mubarak’s regime. The most important benefit of using social media is the increased political knowledge and information available regarding the political situation in Egypt, despite many young people still confining their political activities to passive acts of ‘share’, ‘like’ or ‘post’ on social media. Activists have used social media to ensure visibility of their actions, not only nationally, but also regionally and internationally. There remains a strong need for offline organization and activism by using social media as a communication avenue, not necessarily as a catalyst for changing the political process. A number of problems associated with the use of such media in political deliberations concerning Egypt are highlighted, notwithstanding the positive effects of social media on the political socialisation of young Egyptians. One such problem is the lack of sustainability in online campaigns which should ideally convert into offline collective action. It can be argued that a sustainable civil society and a truly diverse public sphere rests on more sustainable, offline action, which can indeed bring about significant changes in the Egyptian political sphere.

▼ This multi-year, multi-city investigation seeks to examine how and why civic associations are employing information communication technologies (ICTs) in their work and the extent to which these uses are transforming urban ‘civic space.’ Rather than being passive non-state actors shaped by technologies in the ‘networked city,’ civic environmental associations are treated in this study as co-evolving ‘actor-networks’ that are both shaping and shaped by their ICT practices. This study systematically examines how ICT-linked tools or platforms are reconfiguring civic associations and civic space in the three ‘tiger city’ settings of Hong Kong, Singapore and Taipei. This investigation employs grounded theory, case study methods, and actor-network theory to examine the co-evolution of ICTs and civic environmental associations. The concept of info-sociations (ICT-associations) is employed in constructing a socio-technical model for analysis of the fast-evolving ICT practices of civic associations. Such an approach suggests that diverse forms of ICT-linked praxis—where civic ideals and knowledge are being put into practice—involves multimodal digital practices; alongside blended or multiplexed physical and virtual practices; and multiscalar practices. The info-sociational model compares ICT-linked organizational, participatory and spatial practices at the associational level by examining digitally-linked: internal and external organizational change; reconfigurations in the public sphere and cyberactivism; scalar transformations and associational alliance formations. Analyses of city-specific ‘civic space’ storylines; alongside a discussion of the problems and potentialities of ICT-linked practices also contributes to an integrated info-sociational model. An info-sociational approach therefore serves to examine transformations in knowledge, power and space as civic environmentalists employ ICTs. The info-sociational model supports an analysis of three pairs of age-distinct civic environmental associations in Hong Kong, Singapore and Taipei. These six cases (as units of analysis) were selected for their diverse civic environmental activities; their differences in age; and their variety of ICT-linked practices, including uses for: public deliberations, and mobilizing activism; networked alliance formations; identifying environmental and spatial issues in city regions; and creating alternative green media. Employing the info-sociational model in analyses of the six civic environmental associations led to the observations that: ‘externally-oriented’ ICT-linked practices were of greater importance than ‘internal practices’ amongst civic associations; that groups prioritized ‘digital green public sphere’ practices compared to ‘cyberactivism’; and these associations employed ICTs more frequently for ‘alliance-building’ than for ‘spatial transformations.’ Several of the cases illustrated how ICTs can enhance or augment existing alliances and potentially support new types of civic-cyber formations.

▼ Dit onderzoek is tot stand gekomen tijdens een onderzoeksstage van vijf maanden bij MOVISIE, kennisinstituut en adviesbureau voor sociale vraagstukken. Het is een kwalitatief onderzoek naar de grenzen van zelfzorg door de civil society. Omdat de kosten rondom de zorg moeten worden teruggedrongen, pleit de overheid voor meer betrokkenheid en zelfredzaamheid onder de burgers. Zij moeten meer voor zichzelf en voor elkaar gaan zorgen en de overheid pas inschakelen als laatste redmiddel. De Wmo staat in dit onderzoek symbool voor deze verwachtingen. De vraag is of de verwachtingen realistisch zijn en waar de grenzen liggen van de vrijwillige inzet door de civil society. Om hierop een antwoord te vinden is gebruik gemaakt van de theorie over het institutionalisme. Aan de hand van de theorie van Scott (1995) is een vertaling gemaakt van de verzorgingsstaat naar een institutie met een regulatieve, normatieve en cognitieve pilaar. De regulatieve pilaar bestaat uit de wetten en regels. De normatieve pilaar bestaat uit de normatieve verwachtingen die in de institutie zijn ingebed en de cognitieve pilaar bestaat uit de dieper liggende cognitieve veronderstellingen, die vaak onbewust aanwezig zijn. De vraag die in dit onderzoek wordt gesteld is of de verwachtingen en veronderstellingen van de mensen overeenkomen met de nieuwe ideeën over een zelfredzame civil society, of dat men nog steeds uitgaat van een verzorgingsstaat zoals die oorspronkelijk was. De centrale vraagstelling luidt: In hoeverre komen de normatieve verwachtingen en cognitieve veronderstellingen van kwetsbare mensen en hun buurtgenoten wat betreft ondersteuning overeen met de nieuwe institutionele pilaren van de verzorgingsstaat?. Aan de hand van negentien interviews met buurtbewoners van Daalhof (Maastricht) met en zonder beperkingen, is een kwalitatieve analyse uitgevoerd. Hieruit wordt geconcludeerd dat er nog steeds oude verwachtingen en veronderstellingen aanwezig zijn in de ideeën van de respondenten over de ondersteuning van kwetsbare mensen. Dat betekent dat de normatieve en cognitieve pilaar van de verzorgingsstaat overeind blijven, terwijl de regulatieve pilaar is veranderd. Ook betekent het dat de civil society niet kan worden gezien als stabiele factor in de zorg- en welzijnsvoorziening, omdat de verwachtingen en veronderstellingen onder andere gericht zijn op de verantwoordelijk van de overheid en de afhankelijkheid van de burger.
