In Search of Systemic Impact
Scholars investigate philanthropy’s ability to effect change but pay less attention to strategies changing practices within the philanthropic sector. The Cooperative Assistance Fund (CAF) pioneered program-related investments (PRIs) as a philanthropic strategy that merged commercial and philanthropic logics, thus moving beyond traditional grantmaking practices. Adopting an institutional work perspective, the study describes the types of instituti…
How to Leverage Action Research to Develop Context-specific Capacity Building for Civil Society Organizations
In recent decades, increased attention has been given to the hierarchical nature and intrinsic power dynamics of CSO capacity building programs. In a global context, international donors tend to design and implement capacity building programs, which then prioritize donors’ objectives and employ Western concepts in the Global South. This research note aims to reframe capacity building around inclusive and equal partnerships centered on civil socie…

Preisrechtssysteme für Wohnraum - gestern, heute, morgen
Der Beitrag möchte ein besseres Verständnis der beiden historischen Entwicklungslinien des gegenwärtigen deutschen Wohnungsrechts schaffen. Die Frage, ob die unter sozialen Gesichtspunkten erfolgte Ausgestaltung mietrechtlicher Vorschriften des BGB nach 1949 die seit 2006 ausschließliche Gesetzgebungskompetenz der Länder auf dem Gebiet des allgemeinen Wohnungswesens und darüber hinaus zu beschränken vermag, steht weiter im Raum. Das Recht des Woh…
Executive Summaries
This article describes the Transformative Impact Model, an approach to donor-led giving employed by the Wynn Resorts Foundation. In support of two capital improvement projects for a pair of nonprofits in Las Vegas, Nevada, the foundation lent its expertise, and leveraged its professional network to encourage and coordinate in-kind donations and cash gifts. In addition, the foundation's engagement of leadership and front
Assessing Philanthropic Impact
In the 1990s, nonprofit management education was an emerging discipline with few established academic centers seeking to increase connectivity, build out the field, and gain financial sustainability. While organized philanthropy supported this development, foundations’ impact on individual programs and the field more broadly is unclear. The W.K. Kellogg Foundation’s Building Bridges Initiative, a $13.5 million, five-year program to fund nonprofit…
Cross-partisanship and the vulnerability democracy
Exclusionary nationalist movements’ rise in recent years challenges liberal democracy’s trust in political institutions’ ability to neutralize and incorporate extremism. The crisis of liberal democracy likewise questions liberal civil society's emphasis on associational membership’s intrinsic democratic side-effects. The study proposes a partisanship spectrum integrating attitudes to conflict into civil society theory, suggesting the centrality o…
International Grant-Making in Times of Political Unrest
Ernst Jäckh and the National Internationalism of Interwar Germany
In interwar Germany, internationalism and nationalism coexisted in a public sphere that often transcended national borders. This seeming contradiction helps explain the mindset of an era, which simultaneously recognized interconnectedness while privileging national identity. Historians’ interest in internationalism has primarily focused on liberal and cooperative actors and on some selected examples demonstrating the dark sides of internationalis…
Mittel und Wege landesrechtlichen Mietpreisrechts in angespannten Wohnungsmärkten
Der Beitrag geht der Frage nach, ob und wie sich durch die Länder - gestützt auf deren Gesetzgebungskompetenz im Wohnungswesen - selbständig Mietpreisrecht außerhalb des BGB setzen ließe. Die Frage, ob dies wohnungswirtschaftlich zweckmäßig wäre oder nicht, bleibt ausgeklammert. Behandelt werden die sich ergebenden Rechtsfragen. Wenn nicht der Notwendigkeit, so könnten sich Landesgesetzgeber, Mieter und Vermieter doch der Möglichkeit eines autono…

Forced Civil Society? Associational Life, Philanthropy, and the Indianapolis Turnerverein in the 1920s
This study uses the case of a German American association in the 1920s as a historical case study to gain a better understanding of the integration of an immigrant group in American society. Philanthropy, membership recruitment tactics, and associational mission are used as analytical categories in the analysis of German Americans’ processes of assimilation against the background of the aftermath of the First World War and Prohibition. Philanthro…
The Pacifism of Andrew Carnegie and Edwin Ginn
This study analyses the pacifism of Andrew Carnegie and Edwin Ginn against the backdrop of the emergence of new philanthropic practices. Scientific philanthropy and the institutional model of the philanthropic foundation provided the means for new approaches to the peace cause. The study thus argues that Ginn and Carnegie personified a shift from a non-institutional pacifism to an institutional internationalism. Despite noteworthy similarities in…
The Paradoxical Modernity of Civil Society
Civil society theory has rarely been applied to the demise of the Weimar Republic. Emphasizing either the absence of intermediary organizations or the negative nature of Germany’s associational life, current civil society research does not integrate historical analysis with civil society theory. This essay roots civil society in modernity and individualism, thus, linking its fading during the 1920s to the inability of civil society theory to prov…
Modernity, Civil Society, and Sectarianism
By emphasizing civil society’s ambiguous relationship with modernity, the author proposes a discursive definition of civil society that draws on conflict theory. The author distinguishes between a civil society and a sectarian approach to politics from a theoretical perspective. Accordingly, a juxtaposition of the Muslim Brotherhood and its splinter groups in the Egyptian political arena epitomizes the opposing ideals of a civil society and a goo…
Analyse von Lern-Service-Geschäftsmodellen vor dem Hintergrund eines sich transformierenden Bildungswesens
Sowohl für die etablierten als auch für potenzielle neue Akteure im Bildungswesen ist gegenwärtig eine systematische Planung bzw. Analyse ihrer Aktivitäten angesichts der sich wandelnden Wertschöpfungs- und Wettbewerbsstrukturen von hoher Relevanz. Peter Weber zeigt in dieser Arbeit exemplarisch für den Hochschulbereich auf der Basis des diesbezüglich in der Betriebswirtschaftslehre anerkannten Instruments der Geschäftsmodellanalyse Ansatzpunkte …
