Description

This new series is inspired by the highly acclaimed Opposing Viewpoints series, which explores important issues, placing expert opinions from a wide range of sources in a unique pro/con format. Like its predecessor, Introducing Issues with Opposing Viewpoints promotes issue awareness as well as critical thinking. Even more user-friendly and accessible than its parent series, it offers a wealth of information, at a lower reading level, in a bright, engaging package. This appealing combination helps even more students grasp the controversies of our increasingly complex world.

    公民社會理論與實踐: Civil Society: Theory and Praxis
    By 智勝文化, 江明修

    本書以公民社會指標(Civil Society Index, CSI)為切入點，探討理論與實踐的關係議題，並分成四大面向做論述：(1)結構(Structure)面向：公民社會的內部組成是什麼？(2)環境(Environment)面向：公民社會發展的政治、社會經濟、文化、法律環境是什麼？(3)價值(Values)面向：公民社會實踐和推進了什麼樣的社會價值？(4)影響(Impact)面向：公民社會對治理和發展的影響如何？鑑於在公民社會的理論與實踐之間，學術研究機構和非營利組織兩者相互影響卻又相輔相成，若能加深雙方的了解，促進二者之對話，必能成就更豐足的公民社會，是以，本書期望能拋磚引玉，引起更多學者的討論與共鳴。
