This paper clarifies the notion of non‐paternalistic altruism through the use of utility aggregators. It presents conditions for the existence of non‐paternalistically altruistic utility functions and provides a complete characterization of such utility functions. The results are used to generalize the Second Theorem of Welfare Economics and to prove the existence of an equilibrium in a game of voluntary gift‐giving. JEL Classification Nos.: D11, D64.
