Abstract

This paper examines charitable giving from wealthy individuals in both the United States and China. It assesses the motivations of wealthy donors and analyzes the donation trends from the top fifty philanthropists in the last decade in both countries. The data depicts that in both the United States and China, asset size increases more rapidly than donation rates over time. Capitalism offers a possible way to advance social development; however, increasing income inequality may damage the advancement. While substantial philanthropic engagement from wealthy individuals may be an important mechanism to balance capitalism and income inequality, the data indicates that collective sharing of capital continues to have room to further develop.

资本与慈善
本文考察了美国和中国富人的慈善捐赠。该报告评估了富有捐赠者的动机,并分析了两国过去十年中排名前50位的慈善家的捐赠趋势。数据显示,在美国和中国,随着时间的推移,资产规模的增长速度都快于捐赠率。资本主义为促进社会发展提供了一条可能的途径;然而,收入不平等的加剧可能会破坏这种进步。虽然富裕个人的大量慈善参与可能是平衡资本主义和收入不平等的重要机制,但数据表明,集体分享资本仍有进一步发展的空间。
