Abstract

Commonly identified economic sectors include the private, public, and nonprofit sectors. However, many types of organizations overlap, exhibiting characteristics of hybridity between different economic sectors. Hence, classifying organizations that display these overlapping characteristics creates confusion. Considering this confusion, this interdisciplinary study aims to develop a more complete conceptual model of economic sectors that integrates hybridity. This article does so by integrating the institutional logics of ownership and funding to categorize the different types of hybrid organizations, while using the Canadian context to anchor the study. The developed typology is useful as it positions hybrid organizations along economic sector lines.
