摘要:

In Care and Community in Modern Society, a publication of Independent Sector, expert contributors explore how individuals become involved and dedicated to caring for others, and the role such care plays in providing a foundation for our civic, ethical, and spiritual traditions. A well-balanced combination of theory and practice, the chapters collected in this book were written by scholars from a variety of disciplines, including psychology, religious studies, and public policy, and by leaders of community organizations, youth groups, and federal government agencies.

Comprehensive in scope, the book offers theories and practical models of what constitutes and defines a caring community and reveals how care is delivered by families, schools, communities, and society. The editors examine six key topics, including: how family upbringing influences the development of individuals who provide service to their communities; the types of institutions most likely to teach and transmit caring traditions; and the kinds of public policies that promote caring, service, and generosity. The book offers insightful analysis of how these factors interrelate and affect the ability of members of society to transmit caring traditions. Written for scholars in voluntary action, executives of nonprofit organizations, fundraisers, and students of religion, nonprofit management, ethics, social welfare, and public policy, Care and Community in Modern Society outlines the philosophical, religious, and social dimensions of care.
