Produktinformationen zu „Nonprofit Organizations: An Introduction “
In this new edition of his popular textbook, Nonprofit Organizations, Helmut K. Anheier has fully updated his comprehensive introduction to this field. The text takes an international perspective, detailing the background and concepts behind these organizations and examining relevant theories and central issues. Anheier covers the full range of nonprofit organizations - service providers, membership organizations, foundations, community groups - in different fields, such as arts and culture, social services, education. He introduces central terms such as philanthropy, charity, community, social entrepreneurship, social investment and public good. Acknowledging and explaining how the field spills over from public management, thorough nonprofit management and public administration, the textbook is systematic in its treatment of theories, management approaches and policy analyses. The previous edition was winner of the Best Book Award at the American Academy of Management in 2006 and this new edition, expanded and reorganized into parts and chapters, will fit both the North American and European schedules of academic teaching.

Rezension zu „Nonprofit Organizations: An Introduction “
Praise for the previous edition: 'Helmut Anheier is to be applauded for producing a pioneering text that is packed with scholarly reflections covering a broad intellectual canvas.' - The Times Higher Education Supplement 'The importance of the non-profit sector is now recognised as a key feature of most Western societies and the concept continues to gain currency more widely. For the first time in one volume, Helmut K. Anheier, one of the founders of nonprofit studies, brings together the main theories, concepts and research findings from this important inter-disciplinary research field. This clearly-written book will be a valuable guide for students, researchers and policy makers alike.' - David Lewis, London School of Economics, UK 'For students navigating the largely uncharted territory of nonprofit theory, Anheier's comprehensive book will be a welcome resource. And for nonprofit leaders who want to understand their sector better, it presents a big-picture view of nonprofit theory, policy and management. Both will benefit from this important and impressive work.' - William P. Ryan, Harvard University, USA
