THE TEMPTATIONS OF UNFREEDOMNOTES ON CONTRIBUTORSINDEX At the moment, no other European city attracts so much fascination as the city of Berlin. An unrivalled symbol of modern urban life, Berlin is a dynamic city whose inhabitants, in the course of the past two centuries, have lived through both the rapid growth and the violent destruction of the institutions of civil society, several times over. This volume situates itself within these developments by presenting, for the first time in English, a sample of the best, recently written essays on contemporary civil societies, their structural problems, and their uncertain future, written by scholarStudies on Civil SocietyCivil societyGermanyBerlinPOLITICAL SCIENCE / GeneralbisacshSOCIAL SCIENCE / GeneralbisacshCivil societyPOLITICAL SCIENCE / General.SOCIAL SCIENCE / General.300.943155Keane John377156AU-PeELAU-PeELAU-PeELBOOK9910821961703321Civil Society4062950UNINA
