Global Legitimacy Game Civil Society, Globalization and Protest

There is a heated debate underway on the legitimacy of global activists, a war of words (and sometimes stones and teargas) that is rarely examined from top to bottom. This latest book by Canadian commentator Van Rooy scrutinizes the new legitimacy rules, arguing that they have real impact on how our world is governed. In dissecting representation, rights, experience, expertise, moral authority and other evolving rules of legitimation, Van Rooy points to her own proposals for global supplementary democracy.Van Rooy, Alison is the author of 'Global Legitimacy Game Civil Society, Globalization and Protest', published 2004 under ISBN 9781403934918 and ISBN 1403934916.
