Well, I almost finished.

I’ll be presenting this paper at the Association for Research on Nonprofit and Voluntary Action (ARNOVA) in November, and (if I can get funding) at the International Studies Association (ISA) convention in Montreal in March!

Many edits to come before it’s publishable (needs to be half the length – I’ll probably split it into two papers). But take a read if you’re interested. The general themes are the same as those described here, but in this paper you can really get a more rigorous look, and see the relevant work already done on the topic.

Enjoy – and let me know your thoughts.
