This Handbook is the first attempt to systematically examine,
empirically and analytically, the contours of the third sector
policy process in the European Union (EU). While scholarship on the
social, economic and political contributions of organisations
existing between the market and the state has proliferated in
recent years, no sustained attention has previously been paid to
how such organisations are collectively treated by, and respond to,
public policy. The expert contributors examine the policy
environment for, and evolving policy treatment of, the third sector
in the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Sweden, the
Netherlands and the United Kingdom from a comparative perspective.
They also look at how the third sector relates to multi-level
European policy processes, including the Open Method of
Co-ordination, the Community Method, nationally-led 'partnership'
approaches within an overall EU framework and the United Nations
International Year of Volunteering; an initiative implemented in
the EU but originating externally. Providing a rich and compelling
examination of a crucially important aspect of policymaking, this
unique Handbook will fill a major gap in the knowledge of both
general policy analysts and specialists in third sector studies.
Researchers and students in the overlapping fields of organised
civil society, voluntary and third sector studies and the
non-profit sector will also warmly welcome this important book.
