Masyarakat Sipil, Modal Sosial dan Tata Pemerintahan Yang Demokratis
Abstract: Discourse and
promotion of democratic governance in developing countries has been part of
agendas and interests of international donor agencies. This article shows that
donor agencies closely refer to the Neo-Tocquevillian school in promoting
democratic governance in developing countries that entering political
transition towards democracy. This school argues that civil society
organizations (CSOs) have potentials dan capability in developing democratic
governance through building social capital. In the line of this argument and
mapping out of the diversity of CSOs, this article argues that although
Indonesian CSOs face some serius problems, to some extent, they contributed in
promoting democratic governance.
