项目摘要

A growing awareness for (re) localization of production and governance systems as a communal response to economic globalization among scholars and practitioners in regional development has been visible world-wide. More specifically, based on implications from the 1990s' NGOs studies, an empirical analysis of roles of and inter-relations among various organizational actors participating in local development such as local NGOs and international/domestic donors that provide NGOs with direct/indirect assistance is needed, from which we could find some aspects of reality of Sourthen civil society. Mexico is an ideal example for this analysis, since the country has experienced a drastic neoliberalistic transformation in its rural and agricultural sectors with a full membership of NAFTA for seven years. While globalization with a neoliberalistic policy orientation transforms Mexico's macro economic and social environment rapidly, the study identifies the emergence of a place-based alternative dynamics for restructuring local socio-economic space with civil society's initiatives. Also, the study identifies a discourse nourished through the experiences of alternative development at a grassroots level, and actual practices in that context by local NGOs. As a result, I have reached a hypothetical premise of a possible role of Southern civil society for endogenous local development with supports from global civic networks. A critical examination of this hypothesis is needed.

世界范围内，区域发展的学者和实践者越来越意识到生产和治理体系的（重新）本地化，作为对经济全球化的共同反应。更具体地说，基于20世纪90年代非政府组织研究的启示，需要对参与地方发展的各种组织行为者，如当地非政府组织和为非政府组织提供直接/间接援助的国际/国内捐助者的作用和相互关系进行实证分析，从中我们可以发现南方公民社会现实的某些方面。墨西哥是这种分析的一个理想例子，因为该国在其农村和农业部门经历了剧烈的新自由主义转型，并连续七年成为北美自由贸易协定的正式成员。虽然以新自由主义政策为导向的全球化迅速改变了墨西哥的宏观经济和社会环境，但该研究发现，基于地方的替代动力的出现，可以通过民间社会的倡议来重组当地社会经济空间。此外，该研究还确定了一种通过基层替代发展经验以及当地非政府组织在这方面的实际做法所滋养的话语。因此，我得出了一个假设前提：在全球公民网络的支持下，南方公民社会可能在促进地方内生发展方面发挥作用。需要对这一假设进行严格的检验。
