At a time when boundaries between the nonprofit, business, and
public sectors have grown increasingly confused and contested, this
volume by leading experts on nonprofit organizations offers new
ideas and frameworks for understanding the terrain that lies
between the state and the market. The chapters span a broad range
of emerging issues including nonprofit commercialism,
sector-bending hybrid organizational forms, increasingly
sophisticated nonprofit advocacy activities, newly hatched forms of
volunteerism and philanthropy, tensions in public-nonprofit
contracting, and new roles for faith-based nonprofits in social
provision.Contents include: Peter Frumkin, "Charity and
Philanthropy After September 11th"; Joseph M. Knippenberg, "Faith,
Hype, and Charity: Constitutional Controversies over Charitable
Choice"; Leslie Lenkowsky, "The Bush Administration's Civic Agenda
and National Service"; Mark E. Warren, "What is the Political Role
of Nonprofits in a Democracy?"; Steven Rathgeb Smith, "Government
and Nonprofits in the Modern Age: Is Independence Possible?"; Amy

Jeavons, "The Vitality and Independence of Religious Organizations:
A Once and Future Trend"; Estelle James, "Commercialism--Does It
Help or Hurt the Nonprofit's Mission?"; J. Gregory Dees and Beth
Battle Anderson, "Sector-Bending: Blurring the Lines Between

and policy challenges facing nonprofit organizations today.
