具體描述
An insider's groundbreaking investigation of how the global elite's efforts to "change the world" preserve the status quo and obscure their role in causing the problems they later seek to solve.
Former New York Times columnist Anand Giridharadas takes us into the inner sanctums of a new gilded age, where the rich and powerful fight for equality and justice any way they can--except ways that threaten the social order and their position atop it. We see how they rebrand themselves as saviors of the poor; how they lavishly reward "thought leaders" who redefine "change" in winner-friendly ways; and how they constantly seek to do more good, but never less harm.

评分對於一個從未以改變世界為己任的、隻在腦海很邊緣的地方覺得慈善傢和慈善型企業大概是善莫大焉的人來說，確實是個很開闊眼界的思維實驗。但當作者專闢一章質疑以演講和networking為生的“思想領袖”的獨立性、封底個人簡介卻赫然標明接受有償演講邀約時，似乎整本書的觀點在尖銳之餘，更多的是諷刺…
