Download or read book Buttress s World Guide to Abbreviations of Organizations written by Jean C. Swinbank and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 1054 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edition of over 60 000 entries, including significantly more than 20% new or revised material, not only updates its predecessor but also continues the policy of extending coverage to areas dealt with only sparsely in previous editions. Special attention has been paid to the Far East, Australasia and Latin America in general, and to the People's Republic of China in particular. The cross-referencing between a defunct organization and its successor (indicated by ex and now) introduced into the last edition, has been extended. Otherwise the policies adopted in previous editions have been retained. All kinds of organizations are included - international, national, governmental, individual, large or small - but strictly local organizations have been omitted. The subject scope includes activities of all kinds, in the fields of commerce and industry, education, law, politics, public administration, religion, recreation, medicine, science and technology. The country of origin of a national organization is given in brackets, unless it is the home country of the title language or can be deduced readily from the title itself. Acronyms of parent bodies of subsidiary organizations are also added in brackets. Equivalences are used to link acronyms in different languages for the same organization. A select bibliography guides the reader to specialist works providing more detailed information.
Download or read book Buttress s World Guide to Abbreviations of Organizations written by L. Pitman and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 1156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The previous edition of this directory extended its coverage of the Far East, Australasia and Latin America, areas previously under-represented. For this new edition emphasis has been given to increasing the number of entries for organizations from Britain, the United States and Australia, and particular attention has been paid to new political organizations in Central and Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. The number of entries included has gone up to over 68,000 of which over 9,000 are new or amended. Cross-references from defunct organizations in the previous edition have been deleted, and references (indicated by ex and now) added for organizations which have changed their name since the previous edition. As before, the range of organizations included is broad and only purely local organizations have been excluded. This directory therefore lists official and unofficial organizations, national and international, on all SUbjects: political, economic and social. Acronyms of parent bodies of subsidiary organizations are given where appropriate and equivalencies are used to link acronyms in different languages for the same organization. Further information about the organizations listed can be found in the sources listed in the bibliography. I would like to thank Henry Heaney and Graeme Mackintosh for their advice, and David Grinyer for his technical support. L. M. Pitman Bibliography Adams, R. (ed.)

Download or read book Comment g rer une association written by Nicolas Delecourt and published by Puits Fleuri. This book was released on 2007 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les responsables d'association assument de nombreuses fonctions. Au plan juridique et administratif, il faut respecter les formalités légales (instituées notamment par la loi de 1901), assurer le bon fonctionnement de l'association (tenue des assemblées générales et du bureau, fichier des membres, assurances, ...). Au niveau économique et fiscal, il faut très souvent trouver aides et financements, travailler avec un banquier, tenir une comptabilité, respecter les règles fiscales, de plus en plus précises. Ces règles s'imposent à toutes les associations, quels que soient leur taille et leur budget. Et même si les fonctions de responsable d'association sont assumées à titre bénévole, les dirigeants d'association qui omettraient de respecter certaines obligations peuvent voir leur responsabilité personnelle et financière engagée. Ce guide a donc été particulièrement conçu pour les représentants légaux des associations (le président, le trésorier, le secrétaire,...). Il aborde, dans un langage clair et précis, les aspects légaux, administratifs et financiers de l'association. II est illustré de nombreux exemples et modèles.
