Estelle James - Böcker

This is a collection of mostly original essays about the current picture of the international non-profit sector. It deals with the consequences of institutional choice in both industrialized and less-developed countries. England, Wales Sweden, Holland, Japan, Latin America, Austria, Germany, Sri Lanka, West Africa, and Chile are included in this volume, which forms part of the Yale Studies on Non-Profit Organizations Series.

Much discussion has centred on the possibility of a 'third way' between socialism and the market and on the role of the 'third sector' (public, voluntary and not for profit) in modern advanced economies.
