Capital with Faith: A study on the charitable giving behavior of Wenzhou private entrepreneurs

本文借助韦伯的双利益驱动模型及其“扳道夫”假设,通过对温州民营企业主的问卷调查,分析其慈善捐赠行为的内在驱力及其差异。研究发现:(1)企业主的政治和宗教信仰均能对捐赠行为产生积极推动作用；但(2)不同信仰在捐赠方向、形式和结果上存在明显差异,凸显了不同信仰的选择与不同利益之间的亲和性；(3)企业党组织作为外在于企业主权力的制度环境,能够通过影响企业主理念利益的作用程度,影响其慈善捐赠行为。

Utilizing unique data from a survey on private entrepreneurs in Wenzhou, and guided by Weber's dual interest-driven model and "switchman" hypothesis, this paper analyzes the driving forces behind and the differing patterns in the charitable donation behavior of Wenzhou's private entrepreneurs. Some basic research findings include: (1) both political faith and religious faith could positively motivate business owners to donate, yet (2) different kinds of faith have different impacts on where, how, and to what results donations are directed, and the variety of choices highlight a high degree of affinity between faith and material interests; ( 3 ) the party organizations within enterprises form an institutional milieu external to the business owners' authority and are able to affect their ideal interests, and consequently affect their charitable donation behavior; however, this effect is limited.
