Harrow Jenny - The Routledge Companion to Philanthropy

Expectations of what philanthropy can achieve have risen significantly in recent years, reflecting a substantial, but uneven, increase in global wealth and the rolling back of state services in anticipation that philanthropy will fill the void. In addition to this, experiments with entrepreneurial and venture philanthropy are producing novel intersections of the public, non-profit and private spheres, accompanied by new partnerships and hybrid organisational forms. The Routledge Companion to Philanthropy examines these changes and other challenges that philanthropists and philanthropic bodies face.;Setting the scene -- Foreword / Helmut Anheier -- Introduction: a new new philanthropy : from impetus to impact / Susan D.
