What is charity? How does it operate, who does it benefit and what
should we expect it to do? This important book helps to tackle the
most common misunderstandings and misconceptions of charitable
activity in contemporary British society, especially insofar as
these affect the thinking of politicians and policymakers. The
authors present and discuss over a dozen studies, including public
attitudes to giving, large datasets on the geography and funding
patterns of third sector organisations, and interviews with a wide
range of donors, charity leaders, fundraisers and philanthropy
advisers. This data enables them to explore the logic of charity in
terms of the distribution of resources across causes and
communities in the UK, and the processes behind philanthropic
decision-making, to reveal a picture of charitable activity at odds
with widespread assumptions.
