Download or read book Membership in International Organizations written by Gerd Droesse and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-19 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book proposes that fundamental concepts of institutional law need to be rethought and revised. Contrary to conventional wisdom, international organizations do not need to have members, and the members do not need to be states and international organizations. Private sector entities may, for instance, also be full members. Furthermore, international organizations do not need to possess international legal personality, nor is their autonomy a corollary of their personality. Moreover, the notion of “subject of international law” also needs to be reconsidered and the very concepts and definitions of “intergovernmental organization” and “international organization” need to change and be defined in a wider manner. In this publication the legal implications of membership are analyzed and a new analytical framework for international organizations is proposed. The argument is propounded that the power of creation of new organizations has passed over to international organizations and other entities while an outlook on future development is also presented. Dr. Gerd Droesse is a recognized specialist in institutional law, international administrative law, complex institutional and financial policy matters and corporate governance issues, with over 30 years of experience in working for international organizations in senior and management positions. He was the Legal Counsel/Acting General Counsel of the Green Climate Fund and assisted the World Green Economy Organization as General Counsel in its transition to a new type of intergovernmental organization.
Download or read book ReMembership written by Kyle Sexton and published by Incplant. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your organization is unremarkable, therefore no one remarks about you. You keep piling on mediocre features in the hopes one of them will get you across the tipping point. Your board is discussing relevance, which is a word dangerously close to irrelevance. What follows is a conversation about changing everything and a decision to change nothing. There you are, lost somewhere between high convenience and high fidelity, just like the post office. Eighty percent of your members don't show up for anything, yet you still tout participation as the best way to get value from membership. Members will get value when you provide it without requiring their attendance. You tell businesses that your organization is valuable, yet you don't put a value on it. You give away much and charge little. Will you continue to reward your most time-consuming members (the ones you should have fired) with the lowest membership rates? You're losing the advantage of proximity. Your members who work next door to each other would rather send an email than meet up for coffee. How will your local association be safe from borderless alternatives? The tools you need to look as smart as you are have never been more affordable, but your board still says "maybe next year" when it comes to that member-management software investment-the one you've already been putting off for far too long. Something has gone awry in the world of membership organizations when your members are starting to detach from your association and start their own thing. If you can't imagine your organization without its sacred cow parade, pageant, or pancake feed, this book is not for you. If you are not an employee, board member, or high-level volunteer of a chamber of commerce or business-focused association, this book is not for you. Many of today's membership organizations are living on yesterday's bread while their members drink tomorrow's wine. If your members are putting up with it now, they won't for long. This book is about renewing your membership-development strategies because your memberships may be worth less than you think.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Member engagement, recruitment, and retention are fundamental activities that all membership organizations must master to ensure the growth and viability of their organizations over the long term. The Art of Membership by Sheri Jacobs, CAE, provides associations and membership organizations with the practical tools they need to build a loyal and diverse membership base over the long term. Readers will be able to put the tools to work immediately regardless organization size, budget, culture, type, or environment.

The book contains ample cases and examples from associations, nonprofits and for-profits (pricing strategies, value propositions, and marketing tactics) in addition to chapter-by-chapter "how-to" guides with checklists and worksheets that break down the concepts from goal to strategy to tactics culminating in an actionable "to-do" list.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pundits and social observers have voiced alarm each year as fewer Americans involve themselves in voluntary groups that meet regularly. Thousands of nonprofit groups have been launched in recent times, but most are run by professionals who lobby Congress or deliver social services to clients. What will happen to U.S. democracy if participatory groups and social movements wither, while civic involvement becomes one more occupation rather than every citizens right and duty? In Diminished Democracy, Theda Skocpol shows that this decline in public involvement has not always been the case in this countryand how, by understanding the causes of this change, we might reverse it.
