Popis The chapter analyses the roles and contributions of civil society organisations (CSOs) to the welfare state and to society in an "old" democracy (Austria) and a "new" democracy (Czech Republic). It first develops a theoretically based concept of functions of CSOs, which are then empirically investigated in both countries. The empirical findings are dicsussed with a view to establishing how the relative importance of the individual functions characterise the nonprofit regimes in Austria and the Czech Republic and how, from the comparative perspective, the Austrian and Czech CSOs fulfil their societal role in the two different mixed welfare systems.
