Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have gained more and more relevance in the development process in Near Eastern developing societies. The traditional civil society in the Middle East, which used to be in charge of tribes or large families, has been altered by new groups which are organized around new social structures, interests, and goals. NGOs have become important players in the social welfare sector. In the Palestinian society, NGOs not only function as agents of democratic concepts, but also fulfill a para-state role because of an absent Palestinian state. Based on this, a polarity between civil society and state is lacking, which has been replaced by the Israeli occupying power and Palestinian NGOs. This book provides detailed insights in the work and background of the NGOs in Palestine. Because these NGOs are based either on a democratic creed or an Islamic tradition, the competition between these NGOs for funding from the West contributes to the strengthening of fundamentalist reactions. The book concentrates on the system of aid which stems from the Islamic tradition, waqf. This book is based on the author's dissertation.˜

A trillion-dollar industry, the US non-profit sector is one of the world's largest economies. From art museums and university hospitals to think tanks and church charities, over 1.5 million organizations of staggering diversity share the tax-exempt 501(c)(3) designation, if little else. Many social justice organizations have joined this world, often blunting political goals to satisfy government and foundation mandates. But even as funding shrinks, many activists often find it difficult to imagine movement-building outside the non-profit model. The Revolution Will Not Be Funded gathers essays by radical activists, educators, and non-profit staff from around the globe who critically rethink the long-term consequences of what they call the "non-profit industrial complex." Drawing on their own experiences, the contributors track the history of non-profits and provide strategies to transform and work outside them. Urgent and visionary, The Revolution Will Not Be Funded presents a biting critique of the quietly devastating role the non-profit industrial complex plays in managing dissent. Contributors.

Taking the dichotomy of nonprofit "high culture" and for-profit "popular culture" into consideration, this volume assesses the relationship between social purpose in the arts and industrial organization. DiMaggio brings together some of the best works in several disciplines that focus on the significance of the nonprofit form for our cultural industries, the ways in which nonprofit arts organizations are financed, and the constraints that patterns of funding place on the missions that artists and trustees may wish to pursue. Showing how the production and distribution of art are organized in the United States, the book delineates the differing roles of nonprofit organizations, proprietary firms, and government agencies. In doing so, it brings to the surface some of the special tensions that beset arts management and policy, the way the arts are changing or are likely to change, and the policy alternatives "high culture" faces.
