Book Description:
Puede el capitalismo salvar el mundo? Dos expertos en economia presentan en esta obra un apasionante analisis de la explosion del capitalismo filantropico y sus implicaciones. Hasta ahora, la caridad se basaba en donaciones privadas y ayuda no gubernamental. El filantrocapitalismo, en cambio, busca aplicar estrategias empresariales a la creacion de recursos para los mas necesitados. Si empresarios de exito como Bill Gates o Warren Buffett se han valido de las nuevas tecnologias y la globalizacion para amasar inmensas fortunas, por que no aplicar las mismas tecnicas al cambio social? Acostumbrados a pensar a lo grande, los filantroempresarios pretenden aportar soluciones creativas a los grandes problemas: el sistema publico educativo, el cambio climatico, la guerra o el desarrollo economico de los paises pobres. Iniciativas como Google.org, Clinton Global Iniciative o Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, entre otras, son examinadas por los autores en una obra polemica, de lectura indispensable ante un movimiento que se multiplica. / In Philanthrocapitalism, Matthew Bishop and Michael Green examine this new movement and its implications. Proceeding from interviews with some of the most powerful people on the planetincluding Gates, Bill Clinton, George Soros, Angelina Jolie, and Bono, among othersthey show how a web of wealthy, motivated donors has set out to change the world. Their results will have huge implications: In a climate resistant to government spending on social causes, their focused donations may be the greatest force for societal change in our world, and a source of political controversy. Combining on the ground anecdotes, expert analysis, and up close profiles of the wealthy and powerful, this is a fascinating look at a small group of people who will change an enormous number of lives.
