Chapter 9 in Human Resources, Employment and Development, 1983, pp 120-129 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract The Voluntary Non-profit Sector (VNPS) is frequently defined as a residual set of institutions which are neither included in the private (for profit) nor in the public sector of an economy.2 Other authors suggest a number of attributes which characterise ‘third-sector institutions’. Examples given in the literature are orientation toward social responsiveness, dependence on voluntarism, etc.3
