Abstract:

This is the second essay in the section on The Management of Corporate Philanthropy. In a trend paralleling President Reagan's effort to return many government functions to the states and localities, a number of U.S. businesses are adopting a grass-roots approach to giving. Pierson explores this trend, while noting that some corporations still prefer a system of central control that depends on information gathered at the local level. (p. 7)
