The Routledge Handbook on Crisis, Polycrisis, and Public Administration
Intersecting Identities
The emergence of state-sanctioned worker-run social cooperatives as a government-certified social enterprise model in South Korea, functioning simultaneously as worker cooperatives, represents an evolutionary shift in the country’s cooperative movement. Enabled by the enactment of important regulatory frameworks, including the 2006 Social Enterprise Promotion Act and the 2012 Framework Act on Cooperatives, these novel hybrid organizational forms …
Reimagining Nonprofits
What is the nonprofit sector and why does it exist? Collecting the writing of some of the most creative minds in the field of nonprofit studies, this book challenges our traditional understanding of the role and purpose of the nonprofit sector. It reflects on the ways in which new cultural and economic shifts bring existing assumptions into question and offers new conceptualizations of the nonprofit sector that will inform, provoke, and inspire. …

This comparison aims to shed light on the strengths and weaknesses of management education in social work programs. For this purpose, a thorough list of macro-focused MSW degree programs in the U.S. was compiled using the CSWE data…
Globalizing the Field by Learning from Non-English-Based Nonprofit Studies
The knowledge produced about the third sector in one country can provide useful insights to understand the nonprofit sector in other countries. It goes without saying “Knowledge not shared is knowledge wasted.” While the volume of research on the South Korean third sector has been growing in recent decades, its readership has been mostly limited to Korean language users, missing the opportunity to globalize knowledge. Recognizing an opportunity t…
The impact of Covid ‐19 on American Society for Public Administration 's scholar and practitioner membership
The novel coronavirus, or SARS‐CoV‐2, which caused COVID‐19, emerged in China in December 2019 and by March 2020 had rapidly spread becoming a global pandemic. The pandemic tested nearly every aspect of the public sector including efforts to respond to, recover from, and mitigate its impacts. This Viewpoint explores COVID‐19 impact on US‐based public administration scholars and practitioners. The results of a survey conducted for members of the A…
The Government and Civil Society Collaboration against Covid-19 in South Korea
This study examines, from a collaborative governance perspective, the public policy process of South Korea in responding to the global health pandemic. In many countries, attention has been focused primarily on governmental capacity and political leadership in containing the COVID-19 pandemic. In South Korea, however, the role of civil society as a collaborative partner to government is especially important. To analyze the comprehensive and subst…
Young, Fun, and Free
As scholarship on episodic volunteering expands, researchers question if episodic volunteering is similar to, and/or different from, long-term, membership-based volunteering. This article examines the motivations of Ghanaians, South Africans, and Tanzanians to engage in event-based, episodic volunteering. Based on surveys collected from over 1000 participants in 2018, we use logistic regression models to distinguish differences in motivations bet…
