Transnational Civil Society provides an accessible introduction to the history, nature, and achievements of influential transnational civil society networks and movements.

The authors examine important transnational movements in the areas of labor, the environment, human rights, women's rights, peace, and economic justice. Showing the breadth and depth of transnational civil society, they offer a comprehensive picture of initiatives and activists working toward effective and sustainable solutions to some of the critical challenges of the twenty-first century.
