Exhorting people to volunteer is part of the everyday vocabulary of
American politics. Routinely, members of both major parties call
for partnerships between government and nonprofit organizations.
These entreaties increase dramatically during times of crisis, and
the voluntary efforts of ordinary citizens are now seen as a
necessary supplement to government intervention.
But despite the ubiquity of the idea of volunteerism in public
policy debates, analysis of its role in American governance has
been fragmented. Bringing together a diverse set of disciplinary
approaches, "Politics and Partnerships" is a thorough examination
of the place of voluntary associations in political history and an
astute investigation into contemporary experiments in reshaping
that role. The essays here reveal the key role nonprofits have
played in the evolution of both the workplace and welfare and
illuminate the way that government's retreat from welfare has
radically altered the relationship between nonprofits and
corporations.
