Abstract:	"This paper explores the role of private, nonprofit organizations in a self-governing society. An attempt is made at sketching a framework that usefully identifies the diverse theories that explain the various types of organizations that are observed in contemporary American society and providing a fuller understanding of the varied and complex ways that nonprofit organizations contribute to the institutions of governance."
