'This book makes a significant contribution to the study of civil society. It demonstrates that the Asian experience of civil society has been very different from the dominant western forms and that there is no universal civil society. The volume is not only timely because of the huge interest in civil society but also goes a long way in satisfying the urgent need for comparative study of different societal models of civil society. The chapters in this excellent volume provide strong theoretical and empirical analysis of the diversity of Asian civil societies.' Gerard Delanty, University of Liverpool, UK 'An exceptionally informative, historically grounded, empirically rich and theoretically sophisticated collection of essays which offers the latest thinking on the status of civil society in nine nations from South Korea down to Singapore.' Thomas Gold, University of California, Berkeley, USA 'The country studies bring out the huge diversity of civil society experiences in this vast continent, and make this book a compelling read for anyone interested in contemporary Asia.' Journal of the Commonwealth Lawyers Association '...a timely evaluation of the development of civil society in Asia...this is a valuable addition to the literature on civil society...' Political Studies Review 'This book is a useful account of the manner in which civil society has developed in the recent past in different parts of Asia, and the fact that this is still "a project in progress".' Journal of Educational Planning and Administration '...useful and stimulating reading for those interested in various aspects of civil society in several individual countries in Southeast and East Asia.'
