This study has examined responses from three non-profit organizations IOGT-NTO, Forum and LSU about a government investigation into new democracy conditions for government grants. The paper will be a theory trying and will try to see if the non-profit organization will mostly focus on their ideals or if there are other motives that can explain their responses. The reason this subject is interesting is because there is a lack of research into how non-profit organizations work in a country where a large amount of the income is not either from members nor from philanthropies but comes instead from government grants. Three models will be tested. Marketization which claims that non-profit organizations are acting more alike to for-profit organizations, principal instrumentalism which claims that organizations act to gain the largest amount of money to achieve as much as possible according to their mission and emotional model theory which claims that higher emotions such as morale is the driving factor for them.  

The conclusion of this paper was that non-profit organizations were not worried about having their grants pulled. Instead they criticized the investigation for not taking into account the damage to personal integrity for representatives of the non-profit organizations and the bureaucratization the new rules would lead to. The study showed that marketization was discredited but principal instrumentalism and emotional model theory were both similarly supported.
