Charitable giving and philanthropic behavior are frequently the subject of media reports and newspaper headlines. Examining the incentives and barriers to charitable behavior, Dashefsky and Lazerwitz account for such giving by members of the Jewish community. A discussion of motivations for charitable giving, Charitable Choices relies on quantitative and qualitative data in one religio-ethnic community.

Arnold Dashefsky is professor of sociology and director of the Center for Judaic Studies and Contemporary Jewish Life at the University of Connecticut. Bernard Lazerwitz is professor of sociology at Bar-Ilan University in Israel.
