7 Motivation o Motivation: Persistent poverty and need (refugee crisis) Large country differences Research gap (Giving to poor, diff. types of giv.) o Research question: How and to what extent do European citizens help the poor? How can different patterns of organized and informal giving be explained across Europe for donations of money and volunteer work? 7
8 Giving to the poor o Altruistic behaviour: Aim: creating advantage for others Intended and voluntary behaviour No external reward (Piliavin and Charng 1990, Monroe 1994) 8
9 Interaction / Involvement Organized and informal giving of money and time Universität Konstanz Organized volunteering Informal volunteering time Organized donation Informal donation money organized informal Level of formalization 9
10 A multilevel framework Contexts Citizens Human Capital Social Capital Cultural Capital Organised Giving Informal Giving 10
11 Individual level o Homophily hypothesis: The rich give to culture, the less affluent give to the poor (rich versus poor) (Popielarz and McPherson 1995; Rooney et. Al 2007) o Status hypothesis: If the upper classes give to the poor, they do so in organized ways (organized versus informal) (Bourdieu 1984) o Resource specificity hypothesis: o You give the resource you have, but there is no spill 11 over (money versus time) (Feldman 2010)
12 Contexts o Which institutions matter? Welfare state (regimes) (Esping-Andersen 1990) 12
13 Contexts o Which institutions matter? Welfare state (regimes) (Esping-Andersen 1990) Social- democratic regime (Sweden) Conservative regime (Germany) Liberal regime (Great Britain) Latin-rim (Spain) Post-communist countries (Hungary) 13
14 Contexts o Which institutions matter? Welfare state (regimes) (Esping-Andersen 1990) Crowding out any help Non-profit sector (regimes) (Salamon & Anheier 1998) Crowding in organized help But: Large overlap in classification of countries Research thus far inconclusive o Revising the framework Statism versus societal authority Religious roots of giving to poor 14
