The Nonprofit Sector in International Perspective cover

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.

'This is a book made of very diverse material ... To assemble all this in one book requires courage, and Professor James shows she has it. The result is rewarding. I have found it beyond my capabilities to give a decent account of the wealth of case studies reported in the 376 pages of the book. The search for unity is irresistibly tempting, but the richness of diversity makes fascinating reading.' Voluntas, November 1990
