Lester M. Salamon

The Resilient Sector

Buch

As Lester Salamon explains in his second edition of The Resilient Sector, America's non-profit organisations are caught in a force field, buffeted by four different impulses - voluntarism, professionalism, civic activism, and commercialism - that are pulling it in different directions. Understanding this is essential to understanding the future of the nonprofit sector. Salamon explains how and why they developed and how they interact with one another in the ongoing battle for the soul of America's nonprofits.
