商品簡介
George Soros is one of the world’s leading philanthropists. Over the past thirty years, he has provided more than $7 billion to his network of foundations, known collectively as the Open Society Institute, for projects around the world and in the United States. In his new book, Soros writes in detail for the first time about his vision for philanthropy. The book will also describe and explain the work OSI has done in scores of innovative ways to support the concept of open society, the cornerstone of Soros’s commitment to democracy, justice, and human rights. In the 1980s and 1990s, OSI helped shape the transition to democracy in the countries of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union as the Cold War came to a close. Elsewhere around the globe and in the United States, the foundations have tackled an extraordinary array of issues, including public health, education, criminal justice, and, most recently, climate change.
Soros is celebrated for his brilliant financial and economic insights and his investment strategies. But his contribution to philanthropy and the impact of his generosity is equally impressive. This book reveals the thinking and practice that drives a lesser known aspect of this remarkable man’s life, his goals for society and his philosophy.
