Description

More and more is being expected of volunteers and the voluntary sector in the UK. But what does it mean to be a volunteer today? This book seeks to add new insights of individual action in that part of the economy that is beyond the state and the market. Volunteering is examined from the perspective of the individual, the organisation, and the community (of place, identity or interest). Review "Feeding directly into the current ideological discussions on Big Society, 'Enterprising care?' is essential reading for all interested in the future of the voluntary sector." --Colin C Williams, Professor of Public Policy, University of Sheffield About the Author Irene Hardill is Professor of Public Policy, Department of Social Sciences, Northumbria University. She has extensive research experience in theorising work (paid and unpaid), volunteering and the voluntary and community sector Susan Baines is Reader in Social Policy at Manchester Metropolitan University. She researches and publishes on public services, and has a particular interest in their reliance on unpaid work in the household and community.
