Ce livre offre une synthèse des connaissances actuelles en matière de don et pratiques caritatives. Il présente au lecteur une véritable mise en perspective du thème grâce au travail d'une équipe de chercheurs internationaux de renom. Philosophes, sociologues, anthropologues et économistes ont développé des modèles alternatifs du don et des motivations profondes qui guident les donateurs. De leur côté, les chercheurs en marketing et en stratégie se sont surtout concentrés sur les méthodes pragmatiques et normatives d'appel au don par les organismes caritatifs. Aujourd'hui, un courant plus compréhensif se développe, focalisé sur le processus de don, ouvrant la voie au développement d'un modèle théorique et managérial de la praxéologie des donateurs. L'ouvrage fait le point sur ces perspectives, mais propose aussi des voies nouvelles d'analyse afin de comprendre les comportements spécifiques de care et de don (d'argent, de temps et d'objets,...) au cours de l'existence. L'ouvrage est articulé en trois parties : la première traite des fondements conceptuels et historiques du don, la deuxième aborde le marketing du don et la troisième illustre la relation de l'individu au don. Il s'adresse aux chercheurs, étudiants et doctorants en Marketing et Communication et plus largement en Sciences de Gestion, mais aussi aux O.N.G. ainsi qu'à toute personne intéressée par le don.

How did Britain transform itself from a nation of workhouses to one that became a model for the modern welfare state? The Winding Road to the Welfare State investigates the evolution of living standards and welfare policies in Britain from the 1830s to 1950 and provides insights into how British working-class households coped with economic insecurity. George Boyer examines the retrenchment in Victorian poor relief, the Liberal Welfare Reforms, and the beginnings of the postwar welfare state, and he describes how workers altered spending and saving methods based on changing government policies.From the cutting back of the Poor Law after 1834 to Parliament's abrupt about-face in 1906 with the adoption of the Liberal Welfare Reforms, Boyer offers new explanations for oscillations in Britain's social policies and how these shaped worker well-being. The Poor Law's increasing stinginess led skilled manual workers to adopt self-help strategies, but this was not a feasible option for low-skilled workers, many of whom continued to rely on the Poor Law into old age. In contrast, the Liberal Welfare Reforms were a major watershed, marking the end of seven decades of declining support for the needy. Concluding with the Beveridge Report and Labor's social policies in the late 1940s, Boyer shows how the Liberal Welfare Reforms laid the foundations for a national social safety net.A sweeping look at economic pressures after the Industrial Revolution, The Winding Road to the Welfare State illustrates how British welfare policy waxed and waned over the course of a century.

In the years between the Great Famine of the 1840s and the First World War, Ireland experienced a drastic drop in population: the percentage of adults who never married soared from 10 percent to 25 percent, while the overall population decreased by one third. What accounted for this? For many social analysts, the history of post-Famine Irish depopulation was a Malthusian morality tale where declining living standards led young people to postpone marriage out of concern for their ability to support a family. The problem here, argues Timothy Guinnane, is that living standards in post-Famine Ireland did not decline. Rather, other, more subtle economic changes influenced the decision to delay marriage or not marry at all. In this engaging inquiry into the "vanishing Irish," Guinnane explores the options that presented themselves to Ireland's younger generations, taking into account household structure, inheritance, religion, cultural influences on marriage and family life, and especially emigration.Guinnane focuses on rural Ireland, where the population changes were most profound, and explores the way the demographic patterns reflect the rural Irish economy, Ireland's place as a small part in a much larger English-speaking world, and the influence of earlier Irish history and culture. Particular effort is made to compare Irish demographic behavior to similar patterns elsewhere in Europe, revealing an Ireland anchored in European tradition and yet a distinctive society in its own right.Originally published in 1997.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
