They have been right at the heart of every major socio-political initiative. From environmentalism to consumerism; from international aid to human rights; on identity issues such as age, gender, race, religion, disability and sexuality; and on social policy issues such as homelessness, education, child protection and mental health. This book offers the first survey account of NGOs in Britain since 1945. It brings together younger and established scholars to showcase new research presented in the form of surveys of the following areas: environmentalism, international aid and development, human rights, the peace movement, gay rights, sexual politics, women's groups, the anti-apartheid movement, the poverty lobby, drugs, fair-trade, moral reform groups, the relationship between NGOs and the state, and the nature of democracy. It does so by offering accounts of key NGOs in postwar Britain including Amnesty International, the Abortion Law Reform Association, Greenpeace, the Women's Institute, the Child Poverty Action Group and even Mary Whitehouse's National Viewers' and Listeners' Association. 001467638 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001467638 650_0 $$aNon-governmental organizations$$zGreat Britain. 001467638 650_6 $$aOrganisations non gouvernementales$$zGrande-Bretagne. 001467638 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xPolitics and government$$y1945- 001467638 651_0 $$aGreat Britain$$xSocial conditions$$y1945- 001467638 651_6 $$aGrande-Bretagne$$xPolitique et gouvernement$$y1945- 001467638 651_6 $$aGrande-Bretagne$$xConditions sociales$$y1945- 001467638 655_7 $$aHistory.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01411628 001467638 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001467638 7001_ $$aCrowson, N.
