Ideological competition and the rise of business collaboration among U.S. environmental nonprofits.
Switanek, Nicholas J.

Ideological competition and the rise of business collaboration among U.S. environmental nonprofits. - 148 p.

Adviser: William P. Barnett.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Stanford University, 2008.

In the United States at the end of the 20th century and beginning of the 21st, environmental nonprofits collaborated with businesses to achieve environmental goals more than they ever had before. Prevailing ideologies predating this phenomenon had either ignored businesses or seen them as targets for confrontation rather than partners for collaboration. The rise of business collaboration reflected the rise of new environmental ideologies in U.S. environmentalism. This dissertation explores how the relative legitimacy of ideologies of business collaboration related to ideological competition between environmental nonprofits of four ideological types: confronters, collaborators, hybrids, and neutrals. I develop hypotheses relating changes in the numbers of collaborative ideological organizations within a metropolitan area to changes in the growth rates of confrontational and neutral organizations in the same locale. To subject my hypotheses to empirical scrutiny, I use an ecological modeling framework and unique historical data on more than 6,000 environmental nonprofits in more than 200 metropolitan areas. After controlling for many relevant features of organizations, geographies, and time, I find that the growth rates of traditional ideological groups are higher where there are more hybrids and lower where there are more collaborators.
