Structures of Multinational Nonprofit Organizations
Abstract
Draws on the extensive descriptive literature on nonprofits & the
theoretical literature on the structural determinants of organizations
to make predictions about the potential structural range of
multinational nonprofits. It is shown that local resource density
& environmental variation are key factors in determining
multinational nonprofit structures. Such nonprofits are likely to be
structured as umbrella organizations, acting as an additional layer of
hierarchy for multiple indigenous organizations, but unitary,
hierarchical corporate structures are unlikely. 1 Table, 2 Figures, 47
