In this book, Gunda Voigts dedicates herself to the first systematic research into the topics of "children in youth associations" and "practice of inclusion in child and youth work". Those involved in research, politics and practice in child and youth work who want to deal with the current requirements of a consistent inclusion perspective in the sense of the UN Disability Rights Convention for this field of action will receive a valuable overview of the current status of the discussion. The results of current children's surveys are included as well as a fundamental, comprehensive analysis of previous youth association studies. With the help of qualitative expert interviews and a quantitative questionnaire survey, the author can make reliable statements about the actual reality of inclusion in youth organizations and classify the field of child and youth work in the current inclusion debate. For everyone who is involved in research, politics or practice, as an employee in youth associations, municipalities or child and youth welfare institutions, with current issues of child and youth work or in particular extracurricular offers for children or the importance of inclusion for their field of work , this book offers many new insights and suggestions.

"This book examines the business of charity - including fundraising, marketing, branding, financial accountability and the nexus of benevolence, politics and capitalism - in Britain from the development of the British Red Cross in 1870 to 1912. Whilst most studies focus on the distribution of charity, Sarah Roddy, Julie-Marie Strange and Bertrand Taithe look at the roots of the modern third sector, exploring how charities appropriated features more readily associated with commercial enterprises in order to compete and obtain money, manage and account for that money and monetize compassion. Drawing on a wide range of archival research from Charity Organization Societies, Wood Street Mission, Salvation Army, League of Help and Jewish Soup Kitchen, among many others, The Charity Market and Humanitarianism in Britain, 1870-1912 sheds new light on the history of philanthropy in the Victorian and Edwardian periods."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

"Philanthropy has long been associated with images of industrial titans and wealthy families. In Pittsburgh, long a center for industry, the shadows of Carnegie, Mellon, Frick, and others loom especially large, while the stories of working-class citizens who uplifted their neighbors remain untold. For the first time, these two portraits of Pittsburgh philanthropy converge in a rich historic tapestry. The Gift of Belief reveals how Pittsburghers from every strata, creed, and circumstance organized their private resources for the public good. The industrialists and their foundations are here but stand alongside lesser known philanthropists equally involved in institution building, civic reform, and community empowerment. Beginning with sectarian philanthropy in the nineteenth century, moving to scientific philanthropy in the early twentieth century and Pittsburgh Renaissance-era institution-building, and concluding with modern entrepreneurship, twelve authors trace how Pittsburgh aligned with, led, or lagged behind the national philanthropic story and explore how ideals of charity and philanthropy entwined to produce distinctive forms of engagement that has defined Pittsburgh's civic life"--
