Third Sector
"Meghan Kallman and Terry Clark's book, The Third Sector, is a rare and valuable academic endeavor synthesizing the development of the third sector in six case countries, and it sheds light on the relationship between the state and the third sector in each country. . . . This book is a valuable addition to the third sector literature."--Social Service Review

Though the components of this so-called third sector vary by country, their cumulative effects play an ever-greater role in global affairs. Les mer

This book is a valuable addition to the third sector literature."--Social Service Review
"The Third Sector is a relevant and useful book for political scientists, sociologists, legal scholars, and anthropologists interested in the relationship between states and citizen, regardless of what country/region they study." --American Review of Public Administration
"A worthy addition to the bookshelves of scholars, practitioners and policy makers alike--highly recommended reading."--Voluntas
"The most promising contribution of this volume lies in this set of analyses, especially the chapter on the emergence of civil society in China. By bringing attention to the growing third sectors across Asia, the book has the potential to reinvigorate the sociological study of comparative civil society development as well as nonprofit and nongovernmental organizations more broadly."--American Journal of Sociology
"The book is a useful addition to a growing body of research on the third sector that is expanding around the world." --Journal of Planning Education and Research
