书籍简介

安德鲁·卡内基（Andrew Carnegie）的《财富》（写于1889年，当时正值镀金时代的鼎盛时期，美国4000个富有的家庭拥有的财富几乎相当于其他1160万个美国家庭的财富总和。他的文章为现代慈善事业奠定了基础。

今天，我们发现自己处于一个新的镀金时代，其不平等程度远远超过卡内基时代。贫富之间日益扩大的鸿沟需要我们立即予以关注。

现在是时候推出新的“财富”了。

在《从慷慨到公正：财富的新福音》一书中，福特基金会主席达伦·沃克对21世纪的慈善事业提出了大胆的设想。在包括蒲爱珍、劳伦·鲍威尔·乔布斯、小大卫·洛克菲勒和伊丽莎白·亚历山大博士在内的一系列思想家、活动家的贡献下，沃克挑战并鼓励读者将慈善事业视为实现经济、社会和政治正义的工具。

这项任务需要谦卑、道德勇气以及对民主价值观和制度的坚定承诺。它要求所有社会成员认识到自己的特权和地位，解决社会弊病的根源，并寻求和倾听生活在不公正中并经历不公正的人的意见。

在卡耐基时代，这本慷慨的手册现在变成了指引我们走向正义的指南——一本帮助我们每个人找到贡献的方法的指南。

正义在召唤。是我们回答问题的时候了。

Andrew Carnegie wrote his original in 1889, during the height of the gilded age, when the country’s 4,000 richest families held almost as much wealth as the other 11.6 million American families combined. His essay laid the foundation for modern philanthropy.

Today, we find ourselves in a new gilded age—defined by levels of inequality that far surpass those of Carnegie’s time. The widening chasm between haves and have-nots demands our immediate attention.

Now is the time for a new.

In From Generosity to Justice: A New Gospel of Wealth, Darren Walker, president of the Ford Foundation, articulates a bold vision for philanthropy in the twenty-first century. With contributions from an array of thinkers, activists, and leaders including Ai-jen Poo, Laurene Powell Jobs, David Rockefeller Jr., and Dr. Elizabeth Alexander, Walker challenges and emboldens readers to consider philanthropy as a tool for achieving economic, social, and political justice.

That task requires humility, moral courage, and an unwavering commitment to democratic values and institutions. It demands that all members of society recognize their own privilege and position, address the root causes of social ills, and seek out and listen to those who live amid and experience injustice.

What began in Carnegie’s day as a manual for generosity now becomes a guide that moves us closer to justice—a guide that helps each of us find a way to contribute.

Justice is calling. It’s time we answer.
