AbstractDuring autumn 1993 and spring 1994, the author worked as a consultant and trainer for a group of independent social organizations in the city of Voronezh, central Russia. In this article he discusses the main features of voluntary sector development in that city and the characteristics of associations currently active there. The findings indicate a voluntary sector that is both extensive and diverse, in which self‐organizing mutual aid is the predominant organizational form. The findings are discussed against a historical background that traces the development of independent social activism in the former Soviet Union back to the pre‐Gorbachev period. It is this background that may help to explain the rapid growth and surprising complexity of the sector today.

THIS ARTICLE EXAMINES THE VALIDITY OF SOME OF THE OBJECTIVES OF NON-GOVERNMENTAL ORGANIZATIONS (NGO'S) THAT ARE BASED IN THE DONOR STATES AND OPERATE IN THE THIRD WORLD. INEVITABLY, SUCH NGO'S ARE PART OF A WIDER SYSTEM OF DEVELOPMENT ASSISTANCE, AND THEIR FIELD OPERATIONS WILL BOTH INEVITABLY REFLECT THE NATURE OF THIS SYSTEM AND HAVE TO WORK CLOSELY WITH EXISTING STATE STRUCTURES. ON THE OTHER HAND, THE NGO'S ARE OUTSIDERS WHICH ARE, IN AN ARTIFICIAL WAY, ENTERING INTO A PROCESS WHICH OUGHT TO BE MUCH MORE GENUINELY AND ORGANICALLY EVOLVING OUT OF THE LOCAL CONTEXT ITSELF.
