Summary: "The third edition of The Nonprofit Sector, this handbook fills a unique space in the nonprofit literature as the only volume aimed at furthering research in the field. Since the last edition, which has remained a core text in the field, the nonprofit sector has evolved and now overlaps to a greater extent with business and government. The third edition highlights the growing role of nonprofits in public policy, current debates over the relationship between nonprofits and democracy, increasingly blurred lines between nonprofits and the market. Themes that remain highly relevant to the field---the history of the sector, the import of religion, the legal treatment of nonprofits---are again taken up in this new edition, but in all new contributions. The third edition features a nearly completely new group of authors. This third edition is not a mere update, but offers readers the cutting-edge of new research on the nonprofit sector"-- Provided by publisher

内容説明

The nonprofit sector has changed in fundamental ways in recent decades. As the sector has grown in scope and size, both domestically and internationally, the boundaries between for-profit, governmental, and charitable organizations have become intertwined. Nonprofits are increasingly challenged on their roles in mitigating or exacerbating inequality. And debates flare over the role of voluntary organizations in democratic and autocratic societies alike. The Nonprofit Sector takes up these concerns and offers a cutting-edge empirical and theoretical assessment of the state of the field. This book, now in its third edition, brings together leading researchers-economists, historians, philosophers, political scientists, and sociologists along with scholars from communication, education, law, management, and policy schools-to investigate the impact of associational life. Chapters consider the history of the nonprofit sector and of philanthropy; the politics of the public sphere; governance, mission, and engagement; access and inclusion; and global perspectives on nonprofit organizations. Across this comprehensive range of topics, The Nonprofit Sector makes an essential contribution to the study of civil society.
