What role does transnational civil society play in the foreign policy process? Be sure to define the term transnational civil society in your answer. How does the emergence of transnational civil society affect the influence of individual states, cities, and citizens on foreign policy makers?
What will be an ideal response?
Answers should identify transnational civil society as the influence of actors that are not confined to state boundaries, such as nongovernmental organizations and global public opinion. Transnational civil society allows more actors to have access to the foreign policy process and decision-makers and acts as an extension of America’s own civil society. Answers regarding the impact of transnational civil society on states, cities, and citizens may vary but should mention the availability of more information for these actors, as well as increased awareness of certain issues and more channels to mobilize for or against foreign policy actions.
