Book Hero thinking about your next read

Over the past 10-15 years, there has been a flowering of politically-motivated women's non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Israel. This study examines three aspects relating to this new NGO sphere: the reason for growth of NGOs, the kind of learning that occurs in these 'new' political spaces and the political and social implications of women's NGOs.

The New Pythian Voices contributes meaningful data to literature on civil society and democratisation, discussing in particular the relationship between political institutions and NGOs.
