Description

Explore the complex role of the modern American foundation as a central institution for charitable and philanthropic giving. This Routledge publication examines how these organizations function as unique social, economic, and political entities, particularly those managing large assets. By tracing the deep roots of charitable giving, the text connects modern philanthropic structures to the earliest stages of human civilization. It examines the consistent pattern seen across many regions of the world: as wealth accumulates beyond basic human needs, organized forms of foundations begin to emerge. This book provides a necessary look at the evolution of philanthropy and its impact on a global scale, making it a valuable resource for those studying social and urban history.
