"Transnational philanthropy, embodied in the Gates Foundation, is a source of
domination; and this is a serious problem, because it gives the wealthy uncontrolled power over the basic interests of other people in a way that is difficult to reconcile with the commitments to minimal autonomy that underpin much of the distributive global justice literature."
