“The Charitable Deduction in American Political Thought”
The Hudson Institute
1015 15th Street NW | Suite 600
Washington, DC 20005
On April 16, the Bradley Center will hold a different conversation about the deduction, one that explores its deepest dimensions as an expression of fundamental American political principles. Two recent essays set the stage wonderfully, and will be our "assigned reading": one, by Alex Reid, entitled "Renegotiating the Charitable Deduction," and the other by Rob Reich, entitled "Toward a Political Theory of Philanthropy." In addition to these authors, one of the nation’s foremost scholars of philanthropy, Stanley Katz of Princeton, will join the panel to provide an historical perspective. Hudson Institute Senior Fellow William Schambra will moderate the discussion. Lunch will be served.
