British Philanthropy in the Globalizing World

British Philanthropy in the Globalizing World

Entrepreneurs and Evangelicals, 1756-1840

Most accounts of philanthropy and societal change focus either on either the efforts of a small number of 'heroic' individuals, or on wider historical forces. This book traces networks of philanthropists over four generations to show how modern philanthropy, humanitarianism, and social entrepreneurship emerged between the 1750s and the 1830s.
