“…To promote transparency, nonprofit governance codes have been published in some countries. Yet 'comply or explain' rules cannot be enforced (Bromley and Orchard, 2016;von Schnurbein and Stöckli, 2013;Willems et al, 2012). For foundations in particular, transparency regulations differ significantly between countries (von Schnurbein, Chapter 12 in this Handbook).…”

Governance has in many respects become the new management. Just as management succeeded administration from the 1960s onwards (Grey, 1999), so governance has replaced management as the label for steering practices and the distribution of authority in organizations, nation states, politics and various other subfields of society. In this introductory chapter, we will weave the contributions to this Handbook together with prior research into the governance 'story' of the 2020s, and thereby discuss the ways in which the Research Handbook on Nonprofit Governance covers and advances the field.We structure this chapter as follows. First, we review governance definitions and the development of the nonprofit governance concept. Then we map the field of nonprofit governance through a focus on organizing contexts, environmental contexts and constituencies, and we consider some of the governance practices that emerge within them. Next, we examine the governance theory-practice nexus by sketching out the theoretical perspectives considered by the Handbook's contributors. We conclude by indicating some of the lacunae that remain.
