Based on papers given at a conference at King's College,London, in 1998, Foundations of Charity brings together established scholarsin the fields of charity law, public law, and trusts law, and internationally recognized writers on social policy and legal philosophy, from England and Wales, Scotland, Australia, Canada and the United States. The contributors take an iconoclastic approach to the legal definition of charitable status, and provide an in-depth analysis of key concepts in charity law and administration, such as 'public benefit'and 'political activity'. The combination of their different perspectives on 'charity' produces a varied, stimulating, and challenging collection. It will be essential reading for academics, practising lawyers and voluntary sector managers who are looking for a sustained critique of 'charity'.

This collection aims to stimulate debate about a major gap in contemporary criminological research. By failing to engage in a more theoretical and analytical discussion of rurality, criminologists have diminished the importance of complex sociological, geographical and demographic phenomena and have helped perpetuate a simplistic yet enduring perception of two diametrically contrasting communities: the crime ridden urban and the crime free rural. This perception has also led policy makers to look to rural communities for answers to urban crime problems. The authors argue that, whilst there are qualitative and quantitative differences between rural and urban communities' experiences of crime and crime control, the rural is all too often an undifferentiated "other. within the countryside one finds very different groups with very different experiences of crime and criminal justice. the collection combines crime surveys, empirical case studies and theoretical analyses to provide the most comprehensive examination of rural crime available.
