Cette recherche est une contribution à l'étude des pratiques associatives, des rôles sociaux et de l'action sociale des parisien, de la fin de l'ancien régime à la monarchie de juillet. Elle traite du double investissement de la philanthropie contemporaine dans l'action publique (les participations bénévoles consenties aux bureaux de bienfaisance) et dans l'action privée. Les pratiques et propositions des sociétés de bienfaisance libres, sans fins pieuses ni tutelle ecclésiastique, conjuguent alors une triple fonction d'enquête sociale, d'action sociale et de prescription sociale.

La montée en puissance d’une philanthropie élitaire privée est l’un des principaux faits saillants des deux dernières décennies.

Les fondations philanthropiques sont la source d’un intarissable questionnement, au sein duquel les règles de droit sont largement sollicitées.

À partir des résultats de cette analyse, la recherche d’une optimisation entre les règles juridiques et les véhicules d’actions d’intérêt général peut être envisagée.

This thesis explores perspectives on the accountability of Private Ancillary Funds (PAFs), a type of Australian endowed philanthropic foundation.

Through in-depth interviews with managers and trustees of 10 PAFs, forms and relationships of PAF accountability are uncovered. Findings reveal accountability for PAFs does not necessarily include public disclosure or transparency. However, engage

Abstract:
This thesis considers whether the current tax incentives for Australian cross-border philanthropy and their oversight are appropriate to both regulate and facilitate international giving. It finds that Australia has resisted the international trend of liberalising tax incentives for cross-border philanthropy by maintaining a flawed water’s edge policy that limits the ability of Australian donors to engage in tax-effective international giving. The thesis concludes by offering Australian policymakers a principled basis for reform that seeks to maintain an appropriate balance between protecting

Abstract:
This study examines perceptions of nonprofit accountability in philanthropic organisations in Australia, specifically Public Ancillary Funds (PubAFs). PubAFs are charitable trusts that make grants and fundraise from the public. Commonly known types include community and corporate foundations, and flow-through funds for individual charities e.g. hospitals or schools. While PubAFs share a legal form and specific regulatory guidelines, they are very diverse with large variations in donors and beneficiaries. To date accountability of PubAFs has been largely assumed rather than systematically explo

Abstract:
Philanthropy is often considered an unproblematic way for individuals (and especially the rich) to benefit recipients and society by "giving their money away." But philanthropy also gives donors influence and authority, and these powers can be subject to criticism on democratic and egalitarian grounds. This dissertation frames philanthropy as one way in which private money can shape public options and the choices open to individuals. In light of this, it asks what kinds of regulation of philanthropy are appropriate for states committed both to liberal rights and to some vision of equality.<br>

The market for philanthropic donations in America has been thriving since the 1950s. 89 percent of U.S. households make annual monetary donations to charitable organizations, contributing to 20 percent of all revenues in the nonprofit sector. Majority of the factors contributing to this growth in donations can be divided into three general categories: intrinsic motivation, extrinsic motivation, and marketing influence tactics.
