This multi-disciplinary collection blends broad overviews and case studies as well as different theoretical perspectives in a critique of the relationship between United States philanthropic foundations and movements for social change. Scholars and practitioners examine how these foundations support and/or thwart popular social movements and address how philanthropic institutions can be more accountable and democratic in a sophisticated, provocative, and accessible manner. Foundations for Social Change brings together the leading voices on philanthropy and social movements into a single collection and its interdisciplinary approach will appeal to scholars, students, foundation officials, non-profit advocates, and social movement activists.
Daniel Faber is Associate Professor of Sociology at Northeastern University. He specializes in sociology of philanthropy, the political/economy of the environment, and globalization. Deborah McCarthy is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the College of Charleston. She specializes in environmental sociology, social movements, the sociology of philanthropy, and urban studies.
