There are few contemporary studies on this important question and when it is addressed, scholars tend to emphasize the institutional environment that facilitates a modern civil society. However, there is a need for a new perspective on this issue. Contemporary China, where a modern civil society remains in a nascent stage, offers a valuable site to seek new answers. Through a comparative analysis of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) in today’s China, this study shows the importance of the human factor, notably the NGO leadership, in the establishment of a modern civil society. In particular, in recognition of the social nature of NGOs, this study engages in a comparative examination of Chinese NGO leaders’ state linkage, media connections and international ties in order to better understand how each factor contributes to effective NGOs. 2015-09-30T07:46:03Z 2015-09-30T07:46:03Z 2015 Book 978-3-319-03665-6 978-3-319-03664-9 https://scholar.dlu.edu.vn/thuvienso/handle/DLU123456789/58643 en application/pdf Springer
