Slate offers a perspective on philanthropy, philanthrocapitalism, and impact metrics.
From original article:
"Capitalism can transform from a model of greed is good to greed for good. Incentives and purpose matter, and enlightened corporations that take a long-term view will find taking on some of the world's difficult global problems can be profitable. That does not mean that the role for government or the individual is diminished."
