Comparison of Aggregate Tax-Rate Variables --References --Author Index --Subject IndexThe United States is distinctive among Western countries in its reliance on nonprofit institutions to perform major social functions. This reliance is rooted in American history and is fostered by federal tax provisions for charitable giving. In this study, Charles T. Clotfelter demonstrates that changes in tax policy-effected through legislation or inflation-can have a significant impact on the level and composition of giving. Clotfelter focuses on empirical analysis of the effects of tax policy on charitable giving in four major areas: individual contributions, volunteering, corporate giving, and charitable bequests. For each area, discussions of economic theory and relevant tax law precede a review of the data and methodology used in econometric studies of charitable giving. In addition, new econometric analyses are presented, as well as empirical data on the effect of taxes on foundations. While taxes are not the most important determinant of contributions, the results of the analyses presented here suggest that charitable deductions, as well as tax rates and other aspects of the tax system, are significant factors in determining the size and distribution of charitable giving. This work is a model for policy-oriented research efforts, but it also supplies a major (and very timely) addition to the evidence that must inform future proposals for tax reform.National Bureau of Economic Research monograph.Charitable bequestsUnited StatesMathematical modelsCorporationsCharitable contributionsUnited StatesMathematical modelsIncome tax deductions for charitable contributionsUnited StatesMathematical modelsVoluntarismUnited StatesMathematical modelsCharitable bequestsMathematical models.CorporationsCharitable contributionsMathematical models.Income tax deductions for charitable contributionsMathematical models.VoluntarismMathematical models.336.2/06336.206336.24Clotfelter Charles T140636MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910965829103321Federal tax policy and charitable giving4361295UNINA03576nam2 22005293i 450 UBO007496120251003044418.08802034877IT82-1435 19941019d1980 ||||0itac50 baitaitz01i xxxe z01nˆ4: L'‰emergere delle società industriali[scritti di] B.

Self-Portraits While Dying: James Merrill and A Scattering of Salts --Notes --The Andrew W. Mellon Lectures in the Fine Arts, 1952-2007In Last Looks, Last Books, the eminent critic Helen Vendler examines the ways in which five great modern American poets, writing their final books, try to find a style that does justice to life and death alike. With traditional religious consolations no longer available to them, these poets must invent new ways to express the crisis of death, as well as the paradoxical coexistence of a declining body and an undiminished consciousness. In The Rock, Wallace Stevens writes simultaneous narratives of winter and spring; in Ariel, Sylvia Plath sustains melodrama in cool formality; and in Day by Day, Robert Lowell subtracts from plenitude. In Geography III, Elizabeth Bishop is both caught and freed, while James Merrill, in A Scattering of Salts, creates a series of self-portraits as he dies, representing himself by such things as a Christmas tree, human tissue on a laboratory slide, and the evening/morning star. The solution for one poet will not serve for another; each must invent a bridge from an old style to a new one. Casting a last look at life as they contemplate death, these modern writers enrich the resources of lyric poetry.A.W.
