Abstract

A review article discussing Nichtregierungsorganisationen (NGO's) by Ch. Frantz and K. Martens. It discusses the new protagonists in national and international politics and clarifies the origins of the term NGO and how an NGO could be characterized. Furthermore, the article explores the differentiation used in the book, of NGO's and NGO deviants. The article concludes with statements on NGO's tendency to professionalize, and a short discussion on globalization. O. van Zijl
