In diesem Buch werden Beweise zusammengetragen und die Gefahren aufgezeigt, die von philanthropischen »Entwicklungen« ausgehen, die von Konzernen und einzelnen Milliardären in den Bereichen Agrartechnologie, Ernährung, Wissen und globale Gesundheitssysteme betrieben werden. Diese Art von Philanthropie ermöglicht es einigen wenigen »Auserwählten«, Informationen und die Politik für ihren eigenen Profit zu manipulieren und damit Demokratien und Gesellschaften auf der ganzen Welt zu untergraben. In den letzten 30 Jahren hat sich der Philanthrokapitalismus zu einer entscheidenden Kraft entwickelt, die in der Lage ist, die internationale Agenda auf das falsche Gleis zu setzen, unsere Zukunft zu zerstören und unseren Planeten in den ökologischen Zusammenbruch zu führen. In diesem Buch sehen wir, wie die Muster der technokratischen »Lösungen« durch »philanthropische« Aktionen beschleunigt umgesetzt werden, vorangetrieben von einer unheiligen Allianz von Großkapital, Wissenschaft und Technologie, Institutionen und Staaten und entscheidend beeinflusst vom Großen Geld.
