In the first Asia Pacific special issue of Voluntas, 1 Lyons and Hasan (2002) pronounced optimism that ''given the growing interest, the size and the diversity of the region, it is likely that studies of Asia's third sector will appear with increasing frequency'' (p.112) since the basis for a strong research culture had already been laid.The frequency has increased in the last decade or so, albeit slowly.A search in the 'Academic Search Complete' database revealed 214 publications on the third sector in academic journals in English on 15 Asian countries between 2001 and 2013-49 % on China and India (Table 1).The data show variations in research interests across the countries-while 57 % of the publications on China were on cooperatives (a large percentage of which came out in the last 3/4 years), 50 % of the publications on Bangladesh and 38 % on India were impact analysis of different third sector programs (Table 1).There has been a dearth of comparative works, though-only fourteen of the 214 papers are comparative 50 % of which compare different aspects of India (e.g., diaspora philanthropy, cooperatives, or measuring NGO impacts) with nine other countries.All sole or lead authors of these comparative works are non-indigenous researcher.In fact, non-indigenous authorship has been a major phenomenon in the region.Of these 214 papers, 106 have non-indigenous authors and 79 as principal author
