Description: "Can citizens govern globalization? Alfred C. Aman, Jr., argues that they can, and that domestic law has a crucial role to play in this process. He proposes to redefine the legal distinction between public and private to correspond to the realities of the new role of the private sector in delivering public services, and thereby to bring crucial sectors of globalization back within the scope of democratic reform."--BOOK JACKET.
