voluntary associations
voluntary associations Any public, formally constituted, and non-commercial organization of which membership is optional, within a particular society. Examples include churches, political parties, pressure groups, leisure associations or clubs, neighbourhood groups, and (sometimes) trade unions and professional associations. In some theories of
democracy, emphasis is placed on the important role such groups can play in fostering participation in the
civil society, and thus in maintaining social order.
