Dear friends and colleagues,

We are pleased to share with you an article in The Guardian (UK) titled "The trouble with charitable billionaires: More and more wealthy CEOs are pledging to give away parts of their fortunes – often to help fix problems their companies caused. Some call this ‘philanthrocapitalism’, but is it just corporate hypocrisy? By Carl Rhodes and Peter Bloom"

https://www.theguardian.com/news/2018/may/24/the-trouble-with-charitable-billionaires-philanthrocapitalism

It is based on the book "CEO Society: The Corporate Takeover of Everyday Life" by the same authors, published by Zed Books.

With best wishes,
Third World Network
