Fundación Luis VivesThe Spanish Review of the Third Sector is an academic publication based in scientific research. It was created in 2005 in order to analyse topics related to the Third Sector. The Review is aimed at all people and institutions working on the Third Sector, and to all those experts studying the consequences of poverty, inequality and social exclusion, analysing its causes and effects, as well as policies and measures taken to fight them.

The current issue, 9, is a regular issue of the year 2008, since readers can access it in Spanish. But, at the same time, it is also a special issue, in English, in order to reach the academic world and international experts in a series of papers that allow for better insight into the Journal as it is today, which, as is known, is in its third year of progress.
