Scholarship & press
Giridharadas spent time talking with affluent elites and has written a book that's called "Winners Take All: The Elite Charade Of Changing The World."
What this often ends up meaning in practice is that social change that offers a kickback to the winners is favored, and forms of social change that don't are not.
Frankly, rich people would probably have to pay higher taxes in America to empower women in that way. So what happens? Do rich people ignore that demand of women for empowerment? No. They offer a light facsimile of change.
