Abstract

The need for global civil society stems from democratic deficits at the global level, but it is an open question how effective global networks of civil society can be in creating meaningful links of interdependence between societies, global markets and states. Global civil society is actively shaping and informing new constructions for governing globalization as an important actor that can no longer be ignored. It can potentially manage diversity and conflict, support and sustain multi-level public debates. Will a global civil society be able to deliver the enabling frameworks powerful and persistent enough to shape a new global public space?La necesidad de una sociedad civil global proviene de los déficits democráticos existentes a nivel global, pero sigue siendo un asunto pendiente conocer cómo de efectivas pueden ser las redes globales de la sociedad civil en la creación de lazos significativos de interdependencia entre sociedades, mercados globales y estados. La sociedad civil global informa y conforma activamente nuevas construcciones para gobernar globalmente como un actor destacado que no puede ser ignorado más tiempo. Potencialmente puede manejar la diversidad y el conflicto, respaldar y mantener debates públicos en múltiples niveles. ¿Será capaz la sociedad civil global de posibilitar un armazón suficientemente poderoso y persistente para formar un nuevo espacio público global?
