The practice of philanthropy: the facilitating factors from a cross-national perspective / Pamala Wiepking and Femida Handy.The Palgrave Handbook of Global Philanthropy is a comprehensive reference guide to the practice of philanthropy across twenty-six nations and regions. In addition, thematic chapters examine cross-national issues to provide an indispensable guide to the latest research in this field. Drawing on theoretical insights from sociology, economics, political science, and psychology, and including a stellar international line-up of leading philanthropy scholars, this essential reference work describes the non-profit sector and analyzes philanthropic endeavours country by country, providing a global overview that covers Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Australia and the Americas. In addition, thematic chapters examine cross-national issues, including the social origins of the non-profit sector and charitable giving; the influence of government support; the role of religion; fiscal incentives; and fundraising to outline how major country-specific differences in governmental, economic, and legal policies for philanthropic actors and nonprofit organizations shape philanthropic giving, demonstrating how country-specific factors may facilitate or inhibit charitable giving. Nonprofit organizations provide important public goods and services in societies across the world. In times of economic crisis, when governments are forced to decrease public spending, these organizations become even more important in meeting demands for these goods and services. But what motivates individuals to voluntarily give away portions of their own financial resources to benefit the public good and to enable nonprofit organizations to carry out their work? Why do people in one country give more frequently and more generously to nonprofit organizations than those in another? The Palgrave Handbook of Global Philanthropy provides an indispensable guide to the latest research in philanthropy, the non-profit sector and charitable giving.Social serviceSociologyPopular cultureStudy and teachingSocial workNonprofit organizationsSocial service Social Work and Community Developmenthttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33080Sociology, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22000Cultural Studieshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040Social Workhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X21000Non-Profit Organizations and Public Enterpriseshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/527090Social Carehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X33060Social service.Sociology.Popular cultureStudy and teachingSocial work.Nonprofit organizations.Social service .Social Work and Community Development.Sociology, general.Cultural Studies.Social Work.Non-Profit Organizations and Public Enterprises.Social Care.361.7Wiepking Pedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHandy Fedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtCredo Reference (Firm),CaBNVSLCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910796569903321The Palgrave Handbook of Global Philanthropy3795015UNINA
