New Pythian Voices Women Building Political Capital in Ngos in the Middle East

Over the past ten to fifteen years, there has been a flowering of politically-motivated women's non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Israel. Magno 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. This study contributes meaningful data to literature on civil society and democratisation, discussing in particular the relationship between political institutions and NGOs.Magno, Cathryn S. is the author of 'New Pythian Voices Women Building Political Capital in Ngos in the Middle East' with ISBN 9780415935173 and ISBN 0415935172.
