Political science, like law and public administration, is now moving from the study of government to the study of governance, that is, political decision-making processes shared by government and non-government actors. This book argues that radical, anti-establishment lawyers are not simply Robin Hoods but instead are key figures in the complex political task of orchestrating the relationship between government and civil society.--Shapiro, Martin Author InformationMichael Keren is Professor of Political Communication at Tel Aviv University.
