Power Shift. The end of the Cold War has brought no mere adjustment among states but a novel redistribution of power among states, markets, and civil society.
National governments are not simply losing autonomy in a globalizing economy. They are sharing powers -- including political, social, and security roles at the core of sovereignty -- with businesses, with international organizations, and with a multitude of citizens groups, known as nongovernmental organizations (NGOs). The steady concentration of power in the hands of states that began in 1648 with the Peace of Westphalia is over, at least for a while.-1 The absolutes of the Westphalian system -- territorially fixed states where everything of value lies within some state's borders; a single, secular authority governing each territory and representing it outside its borders; and no authority above states -- are all dissolving.

Work at Hennepin got started in 2001 after TWI purchased the floodplain site that once supported two lakes (Hennepin and Hopper) as well as wetland, prairie and fen communities.
Since the 1920s, however, the land had been pumped dry to permit corn and soybean cultivation. TWI turned off the pumps, allowing precipitation and groundwater to refill the lake beds. In response, the adjacent wetlands and marshes quickly sprang back to life. Frogs, birds and plants returned after nearly a century’s absence. The sounds of Western chorus frogs, American toads and spring peepers were also heard. Meanwhile, a more modest effort is underway in Hingham, Massachusetts to resuscitate a 15-acre salt marsh that spans a narrow peninsula called World’s End.
A once-thriving salt marsh was drained for agriculture in the early 1600s by the first European settlers, who installed two dikes to keep saltwater out of the area. Education NGOs. The educational field has been known as playing a major role in shaping contemporary society, mainly because it allows to conceptualize people's surroundings as well as their interactions with those surroundings.
However, as education intersects with politics, geography, and economics, educational outcomes become significantly different. Educational ideology is a product of culture and vice versa. In addition to these factors, the understanding of political economy's role in education is vital in understanding the variance of educational outcomes. The language of education used by nation-states as well as international intergovernmental organizations, non-governmental organizations NGO (both transnational and national), and agents of civil society (many of which belong to the aforementioned categories) contributes heavily to the self-identification of individuals.

We’ve seen many companies adopt whole systems approaches to retooling their business model. We’ve seen executives like Unilever’s Paul Polman turning away investments from sources that don’t buy into Unilever’s equitable and sustainable model. Furthermore, we’ve seen corporations shift from sources of philanthropy to active participants in implementing and participating in projects that give back. So, you may be asking, what’s wrong with all this? But business isn’t “out” anymore. Non-governmental organization. A non-governmental organization (NGO) is an organization that is neither a part of a government nor a conventional for-profit business.
Usually set up by ordinary citizens, NGOs may be funded by governments, foundations, businesses, or private persons. Some avoid formal funding altogether and are run primarily by volunteers.
