Social services and mutual aid

Can anyone recommend readings in the following areas:

1.) World systems perspectives on the history and trajectory of mutual aid 
and private, not-for-profit social services?

2.)  Case studies of Islamic or Jewish mutual aid organizations serving 
"fundamentalist" communities of believers.

Thanks,

John Everett Till
