“…Nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) are a special type of interest group. The 1970s and 1980s were witness to an explosive growth in the number of nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), yet not until the 1990s did the organizations become publicly recognized as a sector rather than individual activist organizations (Marberg et al 2016 ). Different interest groups operate under different ideologies and will have different targets.…”

This study investigates the drivers of pressures from various institutions in the nonmarket environment and the responses of MNEs to these pressures in a host country. By taking a broad institutional perspective, this study pairs and integrates the economic perspective of new institutionalism and the sociological perspective of neo institutionalism with the corporate political strategy perspective. This research provides a systematic review of the drivers underlying pressures from various types of nonmarket institutions that explain the preference of firms to use a transactional or relational strategy to deal with these pressures. The evidence is based on research involving MNEs in the Netherlands. The nonmarket institutions that exert the greatest pressures at the national level pushing MNEs to use transactional more than relational strategies and tactics are regulatory and standards agencies. The pressures of political institutions, interest groups, and the media, in contrast, trigger MNEs to employ relational rather than transactional strategies and tactics.

“…Development NGOs in the UK have been increasingly recognised as a sectorthat is a collection of similar organisations that share similar purposes, challenges, personnel and funding sourcessince the early 1990s. Their own sectoral representative (Bond) was established in 1993, at the same time as the development studies community began looking to civil society organisations to "make a difference" in development (Edwards and Hulme 1992;Marburg, van Kranenburg, and Korzilius 2016). Yet research has been slow to take a sector-wide perspective to understanding development NGOs in Northern (donor) contexts.…”

A paucity of systematic research into development NGO sectors means that we have underestimated their contributions to international development. In 2015 Britain's development NGOs spent nearly £7 billion, equivalent to over half of the UK government's Official Development Assistance (ODA) that year. Mapping the sector reveals its size and significance and gives new insight into its structural composition and how this it is influenced by changes to the funding landscape. Alongside new insights into an influential sector, this work highlights the importance of innovative research methods and techniques for a more systematic understanding of development NGOs globally.

“…The year 1990 was selected as a starting point for the research because the 1990s marked the beginning of greater NPO and NGO activity and participation globally (Charnovitz, ; Marberg, Van Kranenburg, & Korzilius, ). Two decades of articles were deemed appropriate for the study; previous research has indicated that this time frame is sufficient for thematic analysis (e.g., Anheier, ; Brudney & Kluesner, ).…”

This study examines 1,418 articles in three leading journals in the field of nonprofit organization studies from 1990 to 2010. Using topic modeling to detect dominant themes, we were able to trace the development of the academic research on nonprofit and nongovernmental organizations over two decades. We found remarkable changes with regard to an increasing use of professional, managerialist terminology such as that used in for‐profit organizations. This is significant given the potential of the research agenda to influence developments in the nonprofit sector.
