The Profits of Charity examines the contemporary law governing the
involvement of charity in commerce and explores the reasons why
this involvement is dramatically changing. From a perspective
familiar to charity lawyers, NGO managers, and scholars, Kerry
O'Halloran identifies the concepts and the law underpinning
charities and their profits by tracing legal developments in the
field and identifying the resulting opportunities and challenges
for the future. At a time when many leading nations are confronting
economic recession, the threat of terrorism, and the retreat of the
'welfare state,' this book explores why governments are turning to
charities in their quest to cultivate social capital, consolidate
civil society, and promote civic engagement. In The Profits of
Charity, Professor O'Halloran undertakes a comparative analysis of
the balance struck among government, charity, and commerce in five
leading common law nations, including the United States, Canada,
England and Wales, New Zealand, and Australia. He uses analysis of
legislation, outcomes of charity law reviews, and recent case law
to illustrate jurisdictional differences, and concludes with an
assessment of the extent and significance of the recalibrated
relationship and considers the overarching issues that arise
between charity law and social policy.
