Download or read book State Nonprofit Almanac 1997 written by David R. Stevenson and published by The Urban Insitute. This book was released on 1997 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nonprofit organizations have long been key actors in democratic societies -- as service providers, advocates, and monitors of government policy. But the impacts of charitable organizations have not received significant, sustained attention from the policy community. This volume is a product of the National Center for Charitable Statistics (NCCS), located in the Center on Nonprofits and Philanthropy at the Urban Institute, in collaboration with Independent Sector. It provides an overview of the nonprofit organizations in the states, including the state and regional differences in number, type, and financial picture, as well as a detailed profile for every state. The charities are also categorized by their activities, using the National Taxonomy of Exempt Entities. This volume is a companion to Nonprofit Almanac 1996-1997: Dimensions of the Independent Sector by Virginia A. Hodgkinson and Murray S. Weitzman of Independent Sector.

Book excerpt: Recent years have witnessed a significant upsurge of organized private, nonprofit activity in the countries of Asia, Africa and Latin America and with it an appreciation of the role that nonprofit organizations can play in the processes of economic and political change. Long recognized as instruments of relief and promotors of human rights, such organizations have recently come to be viewed also as essential contributors to basic economic growth and to the broader civic infrastucture that is now increasingly seen as a fundamental precondition for markets and representative political institutions to function.

Download or read book Civil Society the Third Sector and Social Enterprise written by Jean-Louis Laville and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-24 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the twentieth century was only focused on the complementarity and the opposition of market and state, the twenty-first century has now to deal with the prominence of the third sector, the emergence of social enterprises and other solidarity hybrid forms. The concept of civil society organisations (CSOs) spans this diversity and addresses this new complexity. The first part of the book highlights the organizational dimensions of CSOs and analyses the growing role of management models and their limits. Too often, the study of CSO governance has been centered on the role of the board and has not sufficiently taken into account the different types of accountability environments. Thus, the conversation about CSO governance rises to the level of networks rather than simple organizations per se, and the role of these networks in setting the agenda in a democratic society. In this perspective, the second part emphasizes the institutional dimensions of CSO governance by opening new avenues on democracy. First, the work of Ostrom about governing the commons provides us new insights to think community self-governance. Second, the work of Habermas and Fraser opens the question of deliberative governance and the role of public sphere to enlarge our vision of CSO governance. Third, the concepts of substantive rationality and economy proposed respectively by Ramos and Polanyi reframe the context in which the question can be addressed. Lastly, this book argues for a stronger intercultural approach useful for the renewal of paradigms in CSOs research. This book has for objective to present a unique collective work in bringing together 33 authors coming from 11 countries to share perpectives on civil society governance and will be of interest to an international audience of researchers and policy-makers.
