“…We analyzed the influence of neighborhood characteristics and organizational practices on NPOs’ engagement in social and systemic integration in the context of the city of Vienna. By considering how NPOs engage in both forms of integration, we advance scholarship on how NPOs create social cohesion and neighborhood vitality (e.g., Hwang & Young, 2022 ; Lichterman & Eliasoph, 2014 ; Marwell & Gullickson, 2013 ). We thereby add to scholarship on social capital by highlighting the organizational perspective of NPOs in enhancing urban cohesion.…”

“…Social capital thus strengthens community identity and its welfare by enabling cooperation and the pursuit of common objectives (Putnam, 1995 ). For example, Hwang and Young ( 2022 ) showed the effects of social capital on local philanthropic engagement. Others highlighted the importance of social capital in disaster recovery by bringing NPOs and volunteers together (Hishida & Shaw, 2014 ; Kaltenbrunner & Renzl, 2019 ).…”

“…Extant scholarship has typically considered the effects of social capital on local community development (e.g., Hishida & Shaw, 2014 ; Hommerich, 2015 ; Hwang & Young, 2022 ; Krishna, 2002 ; Nahapiet & Ghoshal, 1998 ). Although NPOs have been acknowledged in their capability to produce social capital (e.g., Mutz et al, 2022 ), the literature has overlooked NPOs’ capacity to link citizens with institutional actors beyond the immediate bonding within their community and the bridging between different communities (Putnam, 2000 ; Sampson, 1999 ; Trigilia, 2001 ).…”

“…Our study contributes in a twofold way. First, by addressing both the social and systemic integration of NPOs in urban contexts, we extend the understanding of the role of NPOs in creating social cohesion and neighborhood vitality beyond the provision of social capital (e.g., Hwang & Young, 2022 ). We thereby also add to the scholarship on social and systemic integration (Archer, 2007 ; Brandtner & Laryea, 2021 ; Esposito, 2020 ).…”

Nonprofits for Cohesive Cities: Neighborhood Characteristics, Organizational Practices, and their Effects on Social and Systemic Integration

Nonprofit organizations (NPOs) contribute to vital neighborhoods by building communities of citizens and acting as intermediaries between citizens and organizations. We investigate how NPOs’ engagement in social and systemic integration is shaped by neighborhood characteristics, and how it relates to the organizational practices of managerialism and organizational democracy. We combine survey data with administrative data from a representative sample of NPOs in a major European city. To measure the effect of neighborhood on organizational integration, we separated the city into 7,840 grid cells characterized by population, per capita income, share of immigrant population, and density of organizations. Findings indicate that managerialism positively relates with systemic integration, as organizational democracy relates with social integration. Neighborhood characteristics, however, are not related with NPOs’ engagement in integration. Our findings contribute to research on urban social cohesion by illuminating the interplay between NPOs’ organizing practices, local neighborhoods, and contributions to both forms of integration.

“…Burt (1992) clarifies the mutual resource-exchanging aspect of social networks through key connecting actors-structural holes. The bridging feature of social capital connects and explores more resources and opportunities brought by having diverse people and groups with dissimilar profiles join, develop, and benefit from social networks (Hwang & Young, 2022;Weisinger & Salipante, 2005).…”

Nonprofit activity produces social benefits, brings engaged actors in social networks, and promotes a sense of community and belonging by instilling shared values and norms, resulting in community trust and support back to the nonprofit. This reciprocal pattern of community building features the nonprofit role in building social capital. Social capital develops in interaction with the entrepreneurship context. Social entrepreneurial models of nonprofit learning and innovation demonstrate the potential of new entrepreneurial methods and market opportunities to help organizations achieve desired social impacts. This article adds a discussion on nonprofit missions as a vehicle driving nonprofit learning and innovation to be motivated to facilitate community building. By developing a moderated mediation model, we propose that value-instilled innovation from the interactive form of learning and shared mission enhances the nonprofit role in building social capital. The findings support the hypothesized relationships, producing implications for the community-building motivation of nonprofit organizations.
