Andrew Carnegie's "The Gospel of Wealth" addresses the pressing question of how to properly administer great wealth, advocating for a model of philanthropy that benefits the community and endures beyond the benefactor's life. Written in 1889, Carnegie argues that wealthy individuals have a responsibility to support projects like libraries, parks, and educational institutions that uplift the less fortunate and foster public engagement. His vision remains relevant today, as discussions about wealth inequality and social responsibility continue to shape our society.
