NGOs in Contemporary Britain: Non-State Actors in Society and Politics Since 1945

by Matthew Hilton, James McKay, N.J. Crowson

Examining the history of social movements and non-state socio-political action, this volume shows how Non-Governmental Organisations (NGOs) have proliferated in Britain since 1945, and how they have raised new political agendas, revived associational life, and arguably re-politicized generations disillusioned with the politics of the ballot box.
