Acerca de esta escucha
For decades, philanthropy has been viewed as a benevolent force, uplifting communities and advancing education and medicine. But what if charity wasn’t just about generosity? What if it was a strategic tool—one used to shape society, consolidate power, and reinforce the very economic system that created the wealth it distributes?
In Wholesale Philanthropy: From Charity to Social Transformation, a section from E. Richard Brown’s Rockefeller Medicine Men, we uncover how corporate elites—led by figures like John D. Rockefeller—used philanthropy not simply to help the less fortunate, but to reshape public institutions to serve the needs of capitalism. Through massive donations to education, medical institutions, and social programs, Rockefeller and his advisors crafted a system where private wealth dictated public progress.
This audiobook takes you through the history of strategic philanthropy, detailing how charitable trusts and educational endowments were designed to create a skilled managerial class, influence medical standards, and reinforce corporate-friendly ideologies. With gripping insights into the early 20th-century transformation of social institutions, this book challenges the traditional narrative of charitable giving.
Discover how philanthropy became a tool of influence, not just altruism
Understand the role of elite foundations in shaping medicine and education
Explore the hidden connections between corporate power and social policy
Whether you're a history enthusiast, an economist, or simply curious about how power operates behind the scenes, Wholesale Philanthropy is an eye-opening journey into the mechanics of wealth, influence, and social transformation.
