Popis The paper contributes to the discussion about the measurability of the economic characteristics of nonprofit organisations and other entitites established for purposes other than the pursuit of profit. The text analyses the most widely used definitions of the nonprofit sector, examining reflections of these specifications in economic statistics and characteristics, particularly in the approach adopted by the Government Council for Nongovernmental Nonprofit Organisations (GCNGO-NPO), its concept of "nongovernmental nonprofit organisations". The paper indicates significant weaknesses of the GCNGO-NPO s concept and provides arguments against its wider use. Alternatives are presented for a more accurate approach to the definition of the nonpfrofit sector.
