| Abstract
|
:
|
"This book examines the evolving dynamics driving philanthropy as Western society struggles to meet today's many challenges. The author takes a look at the sensitive issues of democratic legitimacy, accountability and credibility in the context of civil society, as well as the changing policy environment in which foundations operate." "He argues that effective philanthropy is "impact driven" and depends on a strategic mix of methodologies that reach beyond grant-giving. The arguments challenge the status quo and deliver a wake up call to philanthropists on both sides of the Atlantic."
