本文总结了非营利部门创业理论的主要成果，并讨论了它们可能对理论发展和现实世界的非营利部门产生的影响。据指出，创业方法增进了我们对非营利部门的了解，特别是通过强调供应方方面，并侧重于个人从事非营利活动所必须具备的偏好。有与创业理论相一致的经验证据。然而，大多数观察结果并不完全支持创业理论，还提供了与非营利部门的其他经济理论一致的证据。这说明非营利部门的各种经济理论更多的是补充而不是替代。此外，创业理论间接有助于改善非营利组织在现实世界中的形象；因此，它们在为培训非营利性管理人员而设立的教学计划中发挥着突出的作用。
This article summarises the main results of entrepreneurship theories of the non-profit sector and discusses the impact they may have on theory development and on the real world non-profit sector. It is pointed out that the entrepreneurship approach advances our knowledge of the non-profit sector, especially by stressing the supply-side aspect and by focusing on the preferences individuals must have in order to engage in non-profit activities. There is empirical evidence consistent with entrepreneurship theories. Yet most observations do not exclusively support entrepreneurship theories but also provide evidence consistent with other economic theories of the non-profit sector. This illustrates that the various economic theories of the non-profit sector are more complements than substitutes. Furthermore, entrepreneurship theories indirectly help to improve the image non-profit organisations have in the real world; therefore they play a prominent role in teaching programmes which have been established to train non-profit managers.
