Sommario/riassunto

India's vibrant civil society sector has become a powerful symbol of political participation in the country. It comprises a wealth of media organizations, caste and religion based associations, farmers groups, labor unions, social service organizations, and an almost limitless number of development organizations. Given this vibrancy, it is difficult to grasp the characteristics of civil society at the transnational or even the national level. Delving beneath the progressive surface to the local level, one finds a murky and multifaceted world of competing interests, compromises, uneasy alliances and erratic victories. The Politics of Collective Advocacy in India critically examines the enormous gap between the ways collective action in India is studied and the ways it operates "on the ground". It identifies what influences the relative success or failure of different movements; the tools activists use to overcome obstacles; the traps that derail efforts to frame, politicize, and act on certain issues and assumptions about particular forms of action. The authors synthesize the experiences of a number of organizations and movements to identify the most effective tools that



civil society actors at all levels can use to achieve positive social change.

Sommario/riassunto

Ulysses S. Grant once remarked that the Battle of Shiloh "has been perhapsless understood, or, to state the case more accurately, more persistentlymisunderstood, than any other engagement . . . during the entire rebellion."In Rethinking Shiloh, Timothy B. Smith seeks to rectify these persistentmyths and misunderstandings, arguing that some of Shiloh's story is eithernot fully examined or has been the result of a limited and narrow collectivememory established decades ago. Continuing the work he began in TheUntold Story of Shiloh, Smith
