Making Democracy Work
A focus on the importance of democracy to free-market capitalism

A democratically elected government is essential to free-market capitalism—a strong democracy provides the foundation necessary for capitalism to benefit all, rather than only a few. Today, democracy is in decline around the world, and populism is on the rise, fed by increasing concerns about economic disparity, racial inequality, and the global pandemic.
Through annual giving to the HBS Fund, donors are supporting HBS faculty members who seek to understand and advance both democracy and capitalism. They are also helping to realize the School’s efforts to educate leaders who will rise to the challenges that business, government, and society are facing.
