Abstract

This study explores how intra-alliance factors (size, resource constraints, mission nature, operating mechanisms) and contextual factors combine to contribute to the sustainability of self-organized non-profit collaboration in disaster relief. A fuzzy-set qualitative comparative analysis was used to analyze 17 non-profit collaborations that emerged after the 2008 Wenchuan and 2013 Lushan earthquakes in China. The findings show that the absence of political pressure (a contextual factor) and having a formal contract-based operating mechanism (an intra-alliance factor) are two necessary conditions for a sustainable non-profit collaboration, and two configurations are identified to contribute to a high degree of sustainability for non-profit collaboration.
