Tóm tắt: | This book takes a different approach to the study of volunteering.
It argues that people do not volunteer in their communities because of
their education level or level of social trust, or because the government
spends a lot (or little) on social services. Rather, people around the
world volunteer these valuable services for their communities because
they think it is their civic responsibility to do so. Volunteers are performing
a civic duty when they volunteer their time, their resources,
even their lives for their communities. In the pages that follow, this
book explores how this sense of civic duty is developed in different
communities, and why it varies – in both content and intensity – from
one community to another. |
