New development: Philanthropy in networked governance—treading with care

While philanthropy is widely seen as a way of filling the void left by cuts in public services, reflective debates on philanthropy, its roles and challenges, are rare. The authors outline key facets of philanthropy, as expressed through philanthropic foundations and trusts, that require further exploration within networked governance debates: our limited understanding of philanthropy and of philanthropic foundations; the increasingly neoliberal discourse of and on philanthropy; and the extent of philanthropy's potential and achievements.
