Is philanthropy charity’s more rational cousin?
Manage episode 361745731 series 3358108
In the second of three short conversations with Rhodri Davies, author of 'What is Philanthropy For?', George Miller asks Rhodri about the difference between philanthropy and charity.
The tension between them is sometimes characterised as a head versus heart conflict, with philanthropy the more rational and systemic of the two, while charity is more emotional and immediate. But does this distinction bear scrutiny in a world of billionaire philanthropists, each with their own pet projects?
