The reasons why people donate to charities have been extensively researched, but how this behavior relates to political values is less well understood. We also know little about how the rise of populist values among the electorate will influence charitable giving in the future. Using a national election survey conducted in Australia in mid-2019, this article examines the influence of populist values on charity donations. The results show that populist values are strong predictors of charitable giving and that those who hold these values are significantly less likely to donate. Among those who do choose to donate, the choice of charity is also strongly influenced by populist values. These results demonstrate that the increasing importance of populist values among the public will have significant implications for the future level and direction of charity donations.

人们广泛地研究了人们向慈善机构捐款的原因，但是人们对这种行为与政治价值的关系却知之甚少。我们也对选民中民粹主义价值观的崛起将如何影响未来的慈善捐赠知之甚少。本文通过2019年中在澳大利亚进行的全国选举调查，研究了民粹主义价值观对慈善捐赠的影响。结果表明，民粹主义价值观是慈善捐赠的有力预测指标，而拥有这些价值观的人捐赠的可能性大大降低。在那些确实选择捐赠的人中，慈善的选择也受到民粹主义价值观的强烈影响。
