Hi Michel No, I hadn't heard of it. I will try to track it down. James On Oct 10, 2011, at 10:07 AM, Michel Bauwens wrote:
Hi James, do you know about this book?
* Civil Society and the United Nations: Legitimating Global Governance- Whose Voice.
Nora McKeon studied history at Harvard University and political science at the Sorbonne before joining the FAO. She held positions of increasing responsibility there, culminating in overall direction of the FAO's relations with civil society. She now divides her time between consulting, writing and lecturing on food systems, peasant farmer movements and UN-civil society relations; and coordinating an exchange and advocacy program for African and European farmers’ organizations on agriculture and trade policy issues. Her recent publications include Peasant Organizations in Theory and Practice (with Michael Watts and Wendy Wolford, UNRISD 2004), Strengthening Dialogue with People’s Movements: UN experience with small farmer platforms and Indigenous Peoples (with Carol Kalafatic, UN-NGLS 2009) and Civil Society and the United Nations: Legitimating Global Governance-Whose Voice. (Zed 2009).
