Description
Summary:Transnational civil society networks have become increasingly important democratizing actors in global politics. Still, the exploration of democracy in such networks remains conceptually and methodologically challenging.

The author attempts to understand how new forms of democratic practice emerge in the interaction between political actors and their structural environments.
