Regulation of the Voluntary Sector: Freedom and Security in an Era of Uncertainty (Critical Approaches to Law)

Law and the Voluntary Sector explores the relationship between the state and the voluntary sector through the lens of developments since September 11. With a focus on states' increasing efforts to delimit and restrict voluntary sector activities, fundraising, grant making and other activities, as well as the opposition to those governmental efforts, this relationship is addressed comparatively: focusing on the U.K and the U.S. with additional perspectives from Australia, Canada, and India. A critical introduction and analysis to the legal relationships between the state and the voluntary sector, this is the first available comparative analysis of state responses to voluntary sector activity in the wake of September 11.Sidel, Mark is the author of 'Regulation of the Voluntary Sector: Freedom and Security in an Era of Uncertainty (Critical Approaches to Law)', published 2009 under ISBN 9780415424240 and ISBN 0415424240.
