Starting with the premise that modern western notions of good governance may be misdirected within a context of traditional Asian civil societies, this article investigates third sector governance practices in Southeast Asia. Case studies from different data sources are presented to suggest that there is no one ideal form of governance or accountability in Southeast Asian third sector organisations. Applying a western lens can serve to deflect attention away from the ways in which contextual factors affect the thinking and practices of accountability of local actors. The paper concludes that a process of hybridisation in governance models is taking place in Southeast Asian societies.

亚洲第三部门治理：追踪混合

从在西方传统的亚洲民间社会的背景下现代西方善治观念可能被误导的前提开始，本文研究了东南亚的第三部门治理实践。提出了来自不同数据源的案例研究，以表明在东南亚第三部门组织中，没有一种理想的治理或问责形式。运用西方视角可以将注意力转移到上下文因素影响地方行为者问责思想和实践的方式上。本文的结论是，东南亚社会正在发生治理模型中的混合过程。
