BOOK EXCERPT:
Connecting everyday management skills to the policy world, this foundational textbook sheds new light on how nonprofit managers can better navigate policymaking and regulatory contexts to effectively lead their organizations. While it covers all of the nuts and bolts, what sets this book apart is how everyday management is tied to the broader view of how nonprofits can thrive within the increasingly intertwined public, private, and not-for-profit sectors. The Second Edition includes updated discussions of coronavirus and pandemic-related policy implications; regulations, sector statistics, and social media fundraising; new and updated case studies; and a new chapter on Philanthropy and Foundations.

BOOK EXCERPT:
If nonprofits influence policy, make policy, are affected by policy, and are subject to policy, then shouldn't every nonprofit manager fully understand the policy world in which they operate? In explicitly tying the policy realm to management skills, Shannon Vaughan and Shelly Arsneault's foundational book sheds new light on how nonprofit managers can better navigate policymaking and regulatory contexts to effectively lead their organizations. Managing Nonprofit Organizations in a Policy World provides a comprehensive overview of the nonprofit sector and the policy environment, with a focus on skills and strategies managers can use to advance the causes of their organizations. Abundant examples and rich case studies explore the complexity of the policy-nonprofit relationship and highlight both management challenges and successes. While coverage of the nuts-and-bolts is in here, what sets this book apart is tying everyday management to the broader view of how nonprofits can thrive within the policy ecosystem.

BOOK EXCERPT:
This book presents a history of the American nonprofit sector. It covers the seminal 1819 Supreme Court decision that Dartmouth College was a private nonprofit corporation and therefore independent of government control. The rise of the sector in the twentieth century is presented through exemplars of four different kinds of nonprofits, efforts at professionalization, and early initiatives in management training. During the twenty-first century, external communication has become central for nonprofits, including lobbying and public reporting. In a more light-hearted vein, the image of American nonprofits in pop culture is analyzed through their depiction in movies. The book’s subject matter is at the intersection of multiple academic fields, including nonprofit studies, nonprofit management, American history, political science, management history, business administration, public administration, and organization theory. It can be used as a textbook, by advanced researchers, and by academic libraries interested in the American nonprofit sector or in US history.

BOOK EXCERPT:
The Nature of the Nonprofit Sector is a collection of insightful and influential classic and recent readings on the existence, forms, and functions of the nonprofit sector—the sector that sits between the market and government. The readings encompass a wide variety of perspectives and disciplines and cover everything from Andrew Carnegie’s turn-of-the-century philosophy of philanthropy to the most recent writings of current scholars and practitioners. Each of the text’s ten parts opens with a framing essay by the editors that provides an overview of the central themes and issues, as well as sometimes competing points of view. The fourth edition of this comprehensive volume includes both new and classic readings, as well as two new sections on the international NGO sector and theories about intersectoral relations. The Nature of the Nonprofit Sector, Fourth Edition is therefore an impressively up-to-date reader designed to provide students of nonprofit and public management with a thorough overview of this growing field.
