Abstract (2. Language): 
This article critically evaluates the impacts of neo-liberal public policies in the UK in the last two decades on the activities, personnel, finance and organisational structure of voluntary sector organisations. It has been argued that, while initially the overall aim of the neo-liberal policies was to bring efficiency into voluntary sec¬tor, these policies have provided mixed results, both positive and negative, in this re¬spect. It may therefore be reasonably argued that government reforms in the UK have expanded the role of voluntary organisations in welfare provision, through the use of contracts, while the net effects on the organizational culture of these organi¬sations and long term provision of the voluntary services is still to be seen.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Bu makale İngiltere'de son yirmi yılda görülen neo-liberal kamu politikalarının gönüllü kuruluşların faaliyetleri, çalışanları, mali ve örgütsel yapıları üzerindeki etkile¬rini eleştirel bir gözle incelemektedir. Her ne kadar başlangıçta neo-liberal politikala¬rın amacı gönüllü kuruluşlarda verimliliği artırmak olsa da, bu politikaların hedeflerine tam olarak ulaşmadığı, ve hem olumlu hem de olumsuz sonuçların bir arada görüldüğü görülmektedir. İngiliz hükümetlerinin yaptığı reformlar sonucu sosyal hizmetlerin su¬numunda gönüllü kuruluşların rolü özellikle bu sektöre verilen ihaleler yoluyla arttırıl¬masına rağmen, bu durumun gönüllü kuruluşlarda örgüt kültürünü ve sosyal hizmetlerin uzun dönemde sunuş şeklini nasıl etkileyeceği hala belirginleşmiş bulunmamaktadır.
