We have become overly reliant on government and the marketplace to solve our biggest social problems, leading to the erosion of civil society. Real leaders must now step up and rebuild a new type of civil society.

A recognised community leader, Ted has a unique background.

Civil society is the arena outside of the family, the state, and the market where people associate to advance common interests. It is sometimes considered to include the family and the private sphere and then referred to as the "third sector" of society, distinct from government and business. Dictionary.com's 21st Century Lexicon defines civil society as 1) the aggregate of non-governmental organizations and institutions that manifest interests and will of citizens or 2) individuals and organizations in a society which are independent of the government. Sometimes the term is used in the more general sense of "the elements such as freedom of speech, an independent judiciary, etc, that make up a democratic society" (Collins English Dictionary).
The term entered public discourse in the United States in the 1980s. However its tradition is much richer and longstanding.
Volunteering is often considered a defining characteristic of the organizations that constitute civil society, which in turn are often called NGOs, or NPOs.

A society, or a human society, is a group of people related to each other through persistent relations, or a large social grouping sharing the same geographical or virtual territory, subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Human societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evinces stratification and/or dominance patterns in subgroups.
Insofar as it is collaborative, a society can enable its members to benefit in ways that would not otherwise be possible on an individual basis; both individual and social (common) benefits can thus be distinguished, or in many cases found to overlap.
A society can also consist of like-minded people governed by their own norms and values within a dominant, larger society. This is sometimes referred to as a subculture, a term used extensively within criminology.

Adam Smith (baptised 16 June 1723 – 17 July 1790 [OS: 5 June 1723 – 17 July 1790]) was a Scottish social philosopher and a pioneer of political economy. One of the key figures of the Scottish Enlightenment, Smith is the author of The Principles Which Lead and Direct Philosophical Enquiries, Illustrated by the History of Astronomy, prior to 1758, The Theory of Moral Sentiments, 1759, and An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations, 1776. The latter, usually abbreviated as The Wealth of Nations, is considered his magnum opus and the first modern work of economics. It earned him an enormous reputation and would become one of the most influential works ever published. Smith is widely cited as the father of modern economics and capitalism and is still among the most influential thinkers in the field of economics today. In 2009, Smith was named among the 'Greatest Scots' of all time, in a vote run by Scottish television channel STV.
Smith studied social philosophy at the University of Glasgow and at Balliol College in the University of Oxford, where he was one of the first students to benefit from scholarships set up by his fellow Glaswegian John Snell. After graduating, he delivered a successful series of public lectures at Edinburgh, leading him to collaborate with David Hume during the Scottish Enlightenment. Smith obtained a professorship at Glasgow teaching moral philosophy, and during this time he wrote and published The Theory of Moral Sentiments. In his later life, he took a tutoring position that allowed him to travel throughout Europe, where he met other intellectual leaders of his day. Smith then returned home and spent the next ten years writing The Wealth of Nations, publishing it in 1776. He died in 1790 at the age of 67.

خروش گروه موسیقی سازهای ایرانی «شاهو» در سال ۷۹ با هدف ارائه ساختاری متفاوت در اجرای موسیقی ایرانی، با تکیه بر قدمت و اصالت ساز کهن و باستانی «تنبور» و بهرهگیری از سازهای مهجور ایرانی تشکیل شد. یکی از اهداف این گروه بازسازی، احیاء و بهکارگیری سازهایی است که طی سالها به دست فراموشی سپرده شده یا کمتر مورد توجه آهنگسازان و نوازندگان قرار گرفتهاند. از جمله این سازها میتوان به «چنگ ایرانی» اشاره کرد که مدت مدیدی است از موسیقی ایرانی رخت بربسته و جز نامی از آن باقی نمانده است. در سال ۸۳ پس از ۲ سال تحقیق, پژوهش و گردآوری منابع, الگوی اولیه چنگ مربوط به دوره ساسانی طراحی و ساخته شد. پس از بررسی و اصلاح الگوی اولیه و رفع نواقص موجود در ساختار و صدادهی، برای نخستین بار در سال ۱۳۸۴ چنگ ایرانی در ترکیب سازی گروه شاهو در تالار وحدت به روی صحنه رفت. از آن پس این ساز در ترکیب گروه سازهای ایرانی د... -

خروش
گروه موسیقی سازهای ایرانی «شاهو» در سال ۷۹ با هدف ارائه ساختاری متفاوت در اجرای موسیقی ایرانی، با تکیه بر قدمت و اصالت ساز کهن و باستانی «تنبور» و بهرهگیری از سازهای مهجور ایرانی تشکیل شد. یکی از اهداف این گروه بازسازی، احیاء و بهکارگیری سازهایی است که طی سالها به دست فراموشی سپرده شده یا کمتر مورد توجه آهنگسازان و نوازندگان قرار گرفتهاند. از جمله این سازها میتوان به «چنگ ایرانی» اشاره کرد که مدت مدیدی است از موسیقی ایرانی رخت بربسته و جز نامی از آن باقی نمانده است.
در سال ۸۳ پس از ۲ سال تحقیق, پژوهش و گردآوری منابع, الگوی اولیه چنگ مربوط به دوره ساسانی طراحی و ساخته شد. پس از بررسی و اصلاح الگوی اولیه و رفع نواقص موجود در ساختار و صدادهی، برای نخستین بار در سال ۱۳۸۴ چنگ ایرانی در ترکیب سازی گروه شاهو در تالار وحدت به روی صحنه رفت. از آن پس این ساز در ترکیب گروه سازهای ایرانی در دو اندازه به عنوان یکی از ارکان ارکستر به کار گرفته شد و در ضبط مجموعههای ارائه شده توسط گروه شاهو نقش به سزایی را ایفا کرده است.
بازسازی و استفاده از سازهای کوبهای متنوع در کنار یکدیگر مانند کوس، گبرگه، نقاره قشقایی و مازندرانی، کوزه، کاسوره، دوطبله، ضرب زورخانه، دف و ... به عنوان بخش مهمی از ارکستر که همان ابزار ایجاد تنوع در ریتم و اجرای آن است یکی دیگر از شاخصههای موسیقیایی گروه شاهو است. همچنین بهرهمندی از خانواده رنگین سازهای زهی آرشهایی با اندازههای مختلف، متشکل از کمانچهها و دلانگیزهای سوپرانو، آلتو و بأس، قیچک آلتو و بأس با تنظیم چندصدایی برای نواختن خطهای ملودیک و هارمونیک، از مهمترین خصوصیات اجرایی موسیقی در گروه سازهای ایرانی شاهو است.
ترکیب سازهای زهی مضرابی شامل تنبورها و شاه تنبورها، به ربت، رباب، بم تار ژاله، دلنواز، قانون و چنگها رنگبندی تازهای را در اجرای این گروه به وجود میآورد که تاکنون کمتر به آن توجه شده است. قرار گرفتن «نای هفت بند و بالابان یا نرمهنای» در کنار سازهای یاد شده و همچنین پرهیز از خواننده محوری و استفاده از آواز جمعی و تکخوانی در کنار یکدیگر از دیگر ویژگیهای این گروه موسیقی سنتی ایرانی است.
این ویدیو مرداد ۱۳۹۲ در سالن همایشهای برج میلاد تهران و با همکاری ۵۳ نوازنده و خواننده موسیقی ایرانی و به آهنگسازی و سرپرستی « حامد صغیری» اجرا شد.

Timothy Snyder: Ukraine, Russia and the Central Significance of Civil Society
Profesor Timothy Snyder speaks about the situation in Russia and Ukraine in the last year and about the significance and role of civil society. „History teaches three lessons here. One is that civil society can and does exist. The second is that civil society can be and is oppressed. The third is that the contest between those who wish to oppress civil society and those who wish to embody it was and remains a central element of history, transcending the history of nations.” (Excerpt from Timothy Snyder’s foreword to the book “Ukrainian history, Russian politics, European future”.) Timothy Snyder (born 1969) is an American historian, professor at the Yale University. His main focus is on the history of Central and Eastern Europe. He is the author of „Bloodlands“ and „Thinking the 20th Cen... -

‘Counterterrorism’ used to crackdown on civil society | Ben Hayes | TEDxLiberdade
This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Counterterrorism and international security expert Ben Hayes shows overwhelming evidence that oppressive regimes around the world are abusing international counterterrorism guidelines to repress civil society action, and are being encouraged to do so. Countries with severe restrictions on civil society like Saudi Arabia receive stellar ratings under these guidelines, while much freer countries like Norway are considered non-compliant. Ben Hayes is an activist-scholar working on international security, counter-terrorism and surveillance frameworks. He has worked with the London-based civil liberties organization Statewatch since 1996 and is a fellow of the Transnational Institute (TNI) in Amsterdam.... -

The Role of Civil Societies in Building Democracy and the Threats They Face - C. Ponce & Art Kaufman
Nongovernmental civil society organizations (NGOs), particularly democracy and human rights groups, contribute essential education, networking, mobilization, and communication efforts to help their fellow citizens prepare for and undertake their countries' transitions to democracy, and to help meet the challenges of consolidating and deepening democracy where transitions have occurred. The problem is that an increasing number of non-democratic governments have passed new legislation, or have taken other measures, to close civil society space, making it difficult, and in some cases near impossible, for democracy and human rights organizations to carry out their work. Many new "NGO laws," restrictions on the press and access to the Internet, and barriers to free expression and assembly, viol... -
Civil Society Enterprise and Local Development
Emeritus Professor Patsy Healey, Newcastle University Positioned on the margins of formal government agencies and sometimes even beyond their purview, civil society initiatives in Western Europe are playing an expanding role in the provision of services and in local development at the present time, as formal government reorganises and retreats. Drawing on English examples and in particular personal experience in a local development trust in a relatively remote rural area in England, I will explore three questions: what creates and sustains such initiatives, how do they build governance capacity and how can their activities be rendered legitimate. In conclusion, and drawing on this specific experience, I consider the extent to which such enterprises are pioneering new ways of doing gover... -

Mario Rizzo: The State versus Civil Society
Mario Rizzo is currently an associate professor of economics at New York University and the director of the Program on the Foundations of the Market Economy. Rizzo is co-author (with Gerald O'Driscoll) of The Economics of Time and Ignorance (1985). In this lecture given at an Institute for Economic Studies conference in Aix-en-Provence, France in 1999, Rizzo speaks about various problems the state has had with civil society throughout history. He gives three examples -- Pliny the Younger and Trajan's letters about licensing clubs, organizations, and fire departments; the Falun Gong movement in China, and the state of private universities in America. He says that by encouraging rent-seeking and lobbying efforts by private groups, the state's attitude toward civil society over the course of... -

Is Civil Society the Good Society? | Prof Jeffrey Alexander
Professor Jeffrey Alexander (Department of Sociology, Yale University) and Professor Maeve Cooke (UCD School of Philosophy, University College Dublin) discuss: "Is Civil Society the Good Society?" at a special workshop in Dublin, Ireland (06 Sept 2013). Professor Alexander, who is the Lillian Chavenson Saden Professor of Sociology at Yale University, was in Ireland to receive an honorary doctorate from University College Dublin in recognition of his "considerable contribution to sociology".

This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. Counterterrorism and international security expert Ben Hayes shows overwhelming evidence that oppressive regimes around the world are abusing international counterterrorism guidelines to repress civil society action, and are being encouraged to do so. Countries with severe restrictions on civil society like Saudi Arabia receive stellar ratings under these guidelines, while much freer countries like Norway are considered non-compliant.
Ben Hayes is an activist-scholar working on international security, counter-terrorism and surveillance frameworks. He has worked with the London-based civil liberties organization Statewatch since 1996 and is a fellow of the Transnational Institute (TNI) in Amsterdam. He is also an associate of the Human Security Collective (The Hague) and previously set-up the counter-terrorism programme at the European Center for Constitutional and Human Rights (Berlin).
Ben’s 2012 report “Legalising surveillance, regulating CIVIL SOCIETY” provided the first irrefutable evidence that international rules on combating the financing of terrorism are being used as a pretext for restrictive regulatory regimes that adversely affect the legitimate activities of non-profit and civil society organisations across the world. The findings of the report provided the catalyst for widespread governmental consultations and the establishment of an international coalition of aid and development organisations, grant-making foundations, civil society networks and non-profit associations that is now engaged in a concerted effort to reform the international counterterrorist financing architecture.
Ben has also produced ground-breaking RESEARCH on the legitimacy and effectiveness of EU counter-terrorism policy, the European “security-industrial complex”; terrorist “blacklists”, pre-emptive security and fundamental rights”; and the militarisation of European border controls. He is currently working on multilateral standards for foreign surveillance reform for the Open Society Foundations and editing a book on climate change and international security for TNI.

Nongovernmental civil society organizations (NGOs), particularly democracy and human rights groups, contribute essential education, networking, mobilization, and communication efforts to help their fellow citizens prepare for and undertake their countries' transitions to democracy, and to help meet the challenges of consolidating and deepening democracy where transitions have occurred. The problem is that an increasing number of non-democratic governments have passed new legislation, or have taken other measures, to close civil society space, making it difficult, and in some cases near impossible, for democracy and human rights organizations to carry out their work. Many new "NGO laws," restrictions on the press and access to the Internet, and barriers to free expression and assembly, violate long-standing, widely-accepted principles, rooted in international law, that ought to inform proper government-civil society relations in a democracy. The presentations and discussion will focus on the ways in which civil society space is being closed and the ways in which the international community can respond.
Art Kaufman is Senior Director of the World Movement for Democracy, a global network of activists, practitioners, scholars and others engaged in advancing democracy, which has its secretariat at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) in Washington, DC. He is responsible for planning and conducting the World Movement's global assemblies, including, to date, in São Paulo, Brazil (2000), in Durban, South Africa (2004), in Istanbul, Turkey (2006), in Kyiv, Ukraine (2008), and in Jakarta, Indonesia (2010). Dr. Kaufman and his staff are also responsible for helping World Movement participants develop regional networks, such as the African Democracy Forum, the Latin American and Caribbean Network for Democracy, and the World Forum for Democratization in Asia, and functional networks focused on democracy research, local governance, youth engagement, and women's political participation, among others. Dr. Kaufman also oversees World Movement projects, such as the Defending Civil Society project, launched in late 2007 to respond to efforts by an increasing number of governments to close civil society space for democracy and human rights work. From 1995 to 2000, he served as Senior Program Officer at NED's International Forum for Democratic Studies. He previously served as Vice President for Programs at the Executive Council on Foreign Diplomacy where he organized senior-level discussion programs on international economic, trade, and environmental issues. He is coeditor of Constitution Makers on Constitution Making: The Experience of Eight Nations and Forging Unity Out of Diversity: The Approaches of Eight Nations, both based on major international conferences held at the Supreme Court of the United States. He earned his doctorate in Government from Georgetown University in 1992.
Carlos Ponce is the general coordinator of the Latin American and Caribbean Network for Democracy, a network of over 210 leading civil society organizations across the Americas, which is affiliated with the World Movement for Democracy. An expert on human rights, civil society, and democracy in Latin America, he is a member of the World Movement Steering Committee and a lecturer at Tufts University. In his native Venezuela, Dr. Ponce successfully founded and led the Justice and Development Consortium—a nongovernmental organization that develops justice-reform and conflict-resolution programs at the local level—and advised the student movement in the country. He is currently a Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellow at the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) where he is studying the ways in which civil society organizations can more strategically defend democracy in Latin America. A member of the International Steering Committee of the Nongovernmental Process of the Community of Democracies, he previously worked as executive secretary of Venezuela's National Human Rights Commission and as an advisor to the Venezuelan Congress.

Emeritus Professor Patsy Healey, Newcastle University
Positioned on the margins of formal government agencies and sometimes even beyond their purview, civil society initiatives in Western Europe are playing an expanding role in the provision of services and in local development at the present time, as formal government reorganises and retreats. Drawing on English examples and in particular personal experience in a local development trust in a relatively remote rural area in England, I will explore three questions: what creates and sustains such initiatives, how do they build governance capacity and how can their activities be rendered legitimate.
In conclusion, and drawing on this specific experience, I consider the extent to which such enterprises are pioneering new ways of doing governance work and creating public value; their future sustainability; and their potential for enriching democracy.
This Talk will draw on two papers to be published in early 2015: ‘Citizen-generated local development initiative: recent English experience’ International Journal of Urban Studies, and ‘Civil Society Enterprise and Local Development’, Planning Theory and Practice

Emeritus Professor Patsy Healey, Newcastle University
Positioned on the margins of formal government agencies and sometimes even beyond their purview, civil society initiatives in Western Europe are playing an expanding role in the provision of services and in local development at the present time, as formal government reorganises and retreats. Drawing on English examples and in particular personal experience in a local development trust in a relatively remote rural area in England, I will explore three questions: what creates and sustains such initiatives, how do they build governance capacity and how can their activities be rendered legitimate.
In conclusion, and drawing on this specific experience, I consider the extent to which such enterprises are pioneering new ways of doing governance work and creating public value; their future sustainability; and their potential for enriching democracy.

Mario Rizzo is currently an associate professor of economics at New York University and the director of the Program on the Foundations of the Market Economy. Rizzo is co-author (with Gerald O'Driscoll) of The Economics of Time and Ignorance (1985).
In this lecture given at an Institute for Economic Studies conference in Aix-en-Provence, France in 1999, Rizzo speaks about various problems the state has had with civil society throughout history. He gives three examples -- Pliny the Younger and Trajan's letters about licensing clubs, organizations, and fire departments; the Falun Gong movement in China, and the state of private universities in America. He says that by encouraging rent-seeking and lobbying efforts by private groups, the state's attitude toward civil society over the course of history has shifted from distrust and outright hostility to one of pandering and encouraging complicity.

Is Civil Society the Good Society? | Prof Jeffrey Alexander

Professor Jeffrey Alexander (Department of Sociology, Yale University) and Professor Maeve Cooke (UCD School of Philosophy, University College Dublin) discuss: "Is Civil Society the Good Society?" at a special workshop in Dublin, Ireland (06 Sept 2013).
Professor Alexander, who is the Lillian Chavenson Saden Professor of Sociology at Yale University, was in Ireland to receive an honorary doctorate from University College Dublin in recognition of his "considerable contribution to sociology".
"Jeffrey Alexander is one of the leading figures if not the intellectual voice of modern cultural sociology. His many books, most outstanding perhaps The Civil Sphere (Oxford University Press 2006), The Performance of Politics (Oxford University Press 2011) and his studies on cultural trauma such as Remembering the Holocaust (Oxford 2009), are milestones in the field", said Dr Andreas Hess, UCD School of Sociology, who read the official citation at the conferring ceremony in University College Dublin.
"In contrast to other attempts such as the sociology of culture or cultural studies, the focus is not only on the arts, theatre, music, modern media and so forth but Alexander's cultural sociology combines the aspirations of classic sociology of a Max Weber or Emile Durkheim with some of the new insights from linguistics, social anthropology, and the philosophy of language and applies these to a wide range of social phenomena."
"In his opus magnum The Civil Sphere and in the follow-up study The Performance of Politics Alexander tries to apply cultural sociology to modern civil society and its politics. They are attempts to understand the complex relations and interactions between established institutions and the more flexible or elastic civil sphere in which public opinion is being formed and in which various conceptualisations of justice are discussed and begin to take shape. As Alexander shows convincingly in the case of Obama's first presidential campaign, the civil sphere is also the place where the open democratic struggle for symbolic representation and meaning takes place − with outcomes that are not always predictable," continued Dr Hess.
