Abstract

We trace the Grand Bargain’s decline to developments in tax policy designed to enhance transparency that, in no small irony, can in turn be traced to the Grand Bargain itself. The tax expenditure budget that grew out of the Tax Reform Act of 1969 may have doomed the Grand Bargain simply by clearly and publicly tallying its costs. That lost innocence transformed philanthropy from a shared act of faith into a transaction, with the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative as its logical conclusion.
