Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The public views and record of philanthropy of a convenience and judgment sample of fifty-eight American big business leaders were weighed against both "Robber Baron" and "Industrial Statesman" interpretations of entrepreneurship to test the revisionist "Industrial Statesman" hypothesis that the views and dona- tions of a purposive sample of America's business leaders for the period 1910 to 1932 demonstrated positive contributions to our nation's learning, culture, and human welfare. In this manner the philosophy of public service emerged as a prominent moving force explaining the philanthropy of American business leaders, re- sulting from an ethical, humanitarian morality which championed the role of education in a democratic society, and the preservation of American civiliza- tion. Thoughtful motives similarly prompted generous giving, as evidenced in libraries, museums, the theater, and art galleries, while additionally providing or enriching those facilities that have enhanced the country's health, research, technology, and leisure-time activities.

Book Synopsis A History of the American Nonprofit Sector by : Mordecai Lee
Download or read book A History of the American Nonprofit Sector written by Mordecai Lee and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2024-07-02 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a history of the American nonprofit sector. It covers the seminal 1819 Supreme Court decision that Dartmouth College was a private nonprofit corporation and therefore independent of government control. The rise of the sector in the twentieth century is presented through exemplars of four different kinds of nonprofits, efforts at professionalization, and early initiatives in management training. During the twenty-first century, external communication has become central for nonprofits, including lobbying and public reporting. In a more light-hearted vein, the image of American nonprofits in pop culture is analyzed through their depiction in movies. The book’s subject matter is at the intersection of multiple academic fields, including nonprofit studies, nonprofit management, American history, political science, management history, business administration, public administration, and organization theory. It can be used as a textbook, by advanced researchers, and by academic libraries interested in the American nonprofit sector or in US history.

Book Synopsis The Social Responsibilities of Business by : Morrell Heald
Download or read book The Social Responsibilities of Business written by Morrell Heald and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-04-27 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of the social responsibility of business has roots in the Puritan doctrine of stewardship as well as the nineteenth-century gospel of wealth, but business leaders only began to consider community welfare as a whole in the context of their corporate aspirations of the latter half of the twentieth century. Originally appearing in 1970, The Social Responsibilities of Business surveys the history of corporate actions in pursuit of social responsibility, and attempts to assess likely developments. Reissued in 1988 by Transaction with a new introduction by the author and now available in paperback, the volume provides Morrel Heald the opportunity to evaluate his earlier predictions and identify prospects for further development in the area of corporate social responsibility. Some of Heald's predictions have not yet come to fruition, and he reflects upon the reasons. No effective structure yet exists to permit an open exchange of views and needs between business and representatives of its various constituencies. In addition, two of Heald's earlier suggestions have not taken root in the way he anticipated--the company foundation, and the corporate social audit-and he assesses why they have not, and what opportunities they still provide. The Social Responsibilities of Business provides essential back ground for understanding the developing social role of the corporation and for assessing its future direction.

Book Synopsis The Business Turn in American Religious History by : Amanda Porterfield
Download or read book The Business Turn in American Religious History written by Amanda Porterfield and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-19 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Business has received little attention in American religious history, although it has profound implications for understanding the sustained popularity and ongoing transformation of religion in the United States. This volume offers a wide ranging exploration of the business aspects of American religious organizations. The authors analyze the financing, production, marketing, and distribution of religious goods and services and the role of wealth and economic organization in sustaining and even shaping worship, charity, philanthropy, institutional growth, and missionary work. Treating religion and business holistically, their essays show that American religious life has always been informed by business practices. Laying the groundwork for further investigation, the authors show how American business has functioned as a domain for achieving religious goals. Indeed they find that religion has historically been more powerful when interwoven with business. Chapters on Mormon enterprise, Jewish philanthropy, Hindu gurus, Native American casinos, and the wedding of business wealth to conservative Catholic social teaching demonstrate the range of new studies stimulated by the business turn in American religious history. Other chapters show how evangelicals joined neo-liberal economic practice and right-wing politics to religious fundamentalism to consolidate wealth and power, and how they developed marketing campaigns and organizational strategies that transformed the American religious landscape. Included are essays exposing the moral compromises religious organizations have made to succeed as centers of wealth and influence, and the religious beliefs that rationalize and justify these compromises. Still others examine the application of business practices as a means of sustaining religious institutions and expanding their reach, and look at controversies over business practices within religious organizations, and the adjustments such organizations have made in response. Together, the essays collected here offer new ways of conceptualizing the interdependence of religion and business in the United States, establishing multiple paths for further study of their intertwined historical development.
