Notes

Resume : Qui peut être qualifié de philanthrope de nos jours? Cette désignation est généralement réservée aux membres d’une riche élite qui donnent des sommes importantes pour diverses causes. Mais cette vision est un peu caricaturale. L’article propose donc une réflexion sur la philanthropie, ainsi que sur les profils et motivations des philanthropes.Abstract: Who should be called a philanthropist today? Usually, this designation applies to members of the rich elite who donate important sums of money to different charitable causes. But this image is somewhat inaccurate. The paper presents some thoughts on philanthropy and on the profiles and motivations of philanthropists.
