Sažetak

This paper empirically investigates various factors affecting variations in the size of the non-profit sector by using cross-country data in the sample of selected countries. Namely, the available data on sector employment (workforce) indicate substantial variations in the size of the sector among countries, although certain problems exist with the measurement of the sector size, whicha are mostly related to its diversity. The existing literature can provide several theories, hypotheses and concepts that could potentially help to explain those differences; the outcome of those approaches is the extrapolation of various demand and supply side factors that affect crosscountry differences in the size of the sector. The exploratory approach taken in the paper is focused on combining the effect of those factors for the purpose of their empirical verification. The results indicate that supply side factors tend to be more important in explaining differences in the size of the sector among countries.
