Volunteering in Cross-National Perspective: Evidence From
Twenty-Four Countries
Lester M. Salamon and S. Wojciech Sokolowski
2001 / CNP-WP-40 / $6.00
Examines data on volunteering in 24 countries. These data show
considerable cross-national variation in the total amount of
volunteering and in the distribution of that volunteering across
service fields. The findings suggest that volunteering is not
just an individual choice or spontaneous outburst of altruism,
but is affected by larger social and institutional forces such as
class structure, government policies, and organized
religion.

Social Origins of Civil Society: An Overview
Lester M. Salamon, S. Wojciech Sokolowski, and Helmut K.
Anheier
2000 / CNP-WP-38 / $6.00
The availability of comparative cross-national data has made it
possible to test the existing theories of the origins of the
nonprofit sector. These theories assume a competitive
relationship between the nonprofit sector and the state in the
production of public goods; however, the cross-national data show
no straightforward relationship between the size of the nonprofit
and the government social welfare sectors. This paper
provides an alternative theory that conceptualizes the nonprofit
sector in the broader context of the development of social,
political, and economic institutions during the period of
modernization. This theory explains cross-national
variations in the size of the nonprofit sector and accounts for
its different roles and relationships to other social
institutions such as state, class structure, and organized
religion in different countries.

The Nonprofit Sector: For What and For Whom?
Lester M. Salamon, Leslie Hems, and Kathryn Chinnock
2000 / CNP-WP-37 / $6.00
Reveals some initial results from the Impact Analysis portion of
the Comparative Nonprofit Sector Project. Nonprofit
organizations are performing a wide variety of service,
innovation, advocacy, expressive and community-building roles in
diverse fields throughout the world. They are doing so,
moreover, with far fewer vulnerabilities than often assumed.
Because it is difficult to answer empirically the fundamental
question of the impact of this set of organizations, this study
utilizes a systematic methodological approach that looks at both
potential positive and negative consequences. The paper
concludes that the nonprofit sector does indeed seem to perform a
distinctive set of roles, while at the same time, it still
suffers from some vulnerabilities. This initial discussion
covers 17 countries to date out of about 40 countries in the
study.

Mark Lyons

Reveals that Australia has many nonprofit organizations, but no
recognized nonprofit sector, despite the fact that collectively
these organizations constitute one of the larger sectors in the
world. This disunity, the author suggests, could pose a
significant burden on the sector's continued development as long
as the public perceives the organizational world in terms of only
the government and business sectors.
