"Millionaires and the Millennium: New Estimates of the Forthcoming
Wealth Transfer and the Prospects for a Golden Age of Philanthropy."
John J. Havens and Paul G. Schervish. October 19, 1999. New estimates showing
forthcoming wealth transfer over the 55-year period from 1998 to 2052 will be
at least $41 trillion and possibly as high as $136 trillion.
"The Reconstitution of Corporate Social Involvement and some
of its Potential Impacts on Nonprofits."
Platon E. Coutsoukis. Presented at the 1999 Fall Conference of the New England
Sociological Association, Boston, MA, Nov. 6, 1999.
In the last ten years, more
and more large corporations in the US are reorganizing their philanthropy and
community relations programs on the basis of the strategic approach. The new
approach seeks to focus the corporate social involvement on community issues
that relate to corporate markets and strategies. Some commentators have expressed
concern that the trend towards the implementation of the strategic approach
may entail some problems for nonprofit organizations. In this paper, I explore
three such issues on the basis of my current research with corporate philanthropy
and community relations programs.
"A River Rises in Eden: Exploring the Quotidian Tributaries of the Moral Citizenship of Care."
Paul G. Schervish and John J. Havens. Revised version of invited presentation
for the thematic session, "Volunteerism, Citizenship, and the New Century,"
at the Annual Meeting of the American Sociological Association, Chicago, Aug.
6-10, 1999.
This paper describes the theoretical foundations, empirical findings,
and practical implications of what we call the moral citizenship or moral economy
of care. In particular, we present an identification model of care; discuss
how it shaped the way we conceptualized, collected, and analyzed the data in
our year-long diary study of daily voluntary assistance; and suggest that when
civic engagement is properly defined and measured there may in fact be no deterioration
in the physical or moral density of associational life as is suggested by many
contemporary commentators.
