About this product
Product Information
The third sector, or the voluntary, civic sector of society, is taking on increasing prominence in the face of retrenchment, austerity, and decreasing confidence in government. This book is the first to offer an up-close look at the relationship between active citizenship and civil society and how that relates to third-sector activities. Drawing on a wide range of theory and case studies, the book explores questions of social connectedness, changing forms of political engagement, and the increasing complexity of the social and environmental problems that the third sector confronts. It will be invaluable for theorists, scholars, and organizers.

Related to my last review on another item in the same order. Looking at all their negative reviews, this seller has the tendency to list items that they most likely don’t even have in stock and then just wait it out to see if the buyer is dumb enough to not say anything. Idk why they do this and what they get out of it since they refund everything back when they get caught, but this is unprofessional and shady af. I was so excited about my items only to get scammed in the end. Never buying again
