Produktinformationen zu „The Lewis Walpole Series in Eighteenth-C: Civil Society and Empire (PDF)“
James Livesey traces the origins of the modern conception of civil societyan ideal of collective life between the family and politicsnot to England or France, as many of his predecessors have done, but to the provincial societies of Ireland and Scotland in the eighteenth century. Livesey shows how civil society was first invented as an idea of renewed community for the provincial and defeated elites in the provinces of the British Empire and how this innovation allowed them to enjoy liberty without directly participating in the empires governance, until the limits of the concept were revealed.The concept of civil society continues to have direct relevance for contemporary political theory and action. Livesey demonstrates how western governments, for example, have appealed to the values of civil society in their projections of power in Bosnia and Iraq.Civil society has become an object central to current ideological debate, and this book offers a thought-provoking discussion of its beginnings, objectives, and current nature.
