Resumen

En este documento se compara el papel de la sociedad ambientalista civil en dos organizaciones regionales: la Unión Europea y el Tratado de Libre Comercio de América del Norte. Para ello se utiliza la red transnacional de defensa que evalúa cómo las ong aprovechan las oportunidades para influenciar la política y los efectos del compromiso de la sociedad civil. Pese a las grandes diferencias entre esas organizaciones, comparten aspectos fundamentales: proporcionan recursos e importantes puntos de acceso a las ong, presentan límites y frustraciones, y ambas fomentan la construcción de coaliciones entre ong.
