Abstract:
|
This paper examines the direct engagement of civil society organizations and law enforcement in Russia in joint efforts to improve the performance and change the norms and values of state officials involved in administering justice. I describe a causal mechanism generally neglected in the burgeoning literature on national and transnational civil society, specifically how non-governmental organizations can work from the bottom up, and from the inside out, to try to strengthen the rule of law and ultimately democracy. I present three cases studies of NGO-law enforcement cooperation on rule of law reform. Although these projects suffer from some common pathologies of civil society work in Russia, they remain important, not least because of the presence of “uncivil society” groups who also are trying to influence the norms and beliefs of state law enforcement officials. |
