"Crimes of Charity," by Konrad Bercovici, delves into the complex world of philanthropy and its impact on urban life in New York City. This historical work examines the inner workings of charitable organizations and the social issues they address, offering a critical perspective on the potential for corruption within these systems.

Bercovici's exploration of charities in New York provides a snapshot of a specific time and place, while raising questions about the broader implications of benevolence. The book, a classic work in the social sciences, presents a detailed study of the relationship between charity, power, and the realities of urban environments. It remains a relevant and thought-provoking examination of the challenges inherent in addressing social needs and the potential pitfalls of even the most well-intentioned endeavors. This meticulously prepared print republication makes this important work accessible to a new readership.
