: "The Committee on Civil Society Research in Sweden decided : to organise a seminar titled ''Global Civil Society - More or Less De-'' : ''mocracy?'' at the WSF in Nairobi in January 2007, focusing on de- : mocracy and civil society in the context of contemporary globalisa- : tion. It was also decided to follow up the seminar with a publication, : inviting additional contributors who were not part of the seminar in : Nairobi, but who have a strong interest in issues related to global civil : society. The key questions we asked were: : : * What are implications for democracy of the increasing number : and activities of NGOs, social movement organisations and private : foundations globally �whether we choose to conceptualise these : as "civil society" or not? : * In what sense does (or can) global civil society contribute to fur- : ther democratisation in an era of globalisation? : * In what sense can global civil society undermine democratisation : processes?
