The essential premise of this book is that recent decades have brought
about social and economic changes within the Jewish community generally,
and Orthodoxy in particular, that generate a need to revisit issues
relating to Jewish charity and philanthropy. The collection of articles
in this book, written for and discussed at the 2008 Orthodox Forum,
attempts to provide the background for a renewed ethic of Jewish
charitable giving by examining the current reality through the lens of
sociology, history, Jewish public policy and halacha.
