31	The character of the business foundation Ho, Hui-Ling 26 June 2000 (has links) Abstract The original purpose of foundations in Taiwanese society was to remedy the insubstantiality of the government. However, the role of foundations in society has expanded considerably in recent years. The aims of different types of foundations vary a great deal, from focusing on trying to improve basic social welfare, to the support of research investment. In addition, many foundations that originally intervened actively to promote and pursue social welfare have now changed to a far more passive role. This thesis starts by defining the five characteristics of foundations: independence, philanthropy, strategy, transparency, and specialty. It uses these characteristics as a tool to analyze those foundations that were set up by businesses. It is clear from extensive local research that some, if not most, foundations have considerable scope for improvement if they are to become more effective institutions. Taking ¡§independence¡¨ as an example, the purpose of foundations set up by businesses is ostensibly to help people in need, or to help related academic research. However, many business foundations are inseparable from the original mother business. Consequently these foundations have a tendency to lose their original purpose, or become a tool for passing on ¡§favors¡¨. This thesis aims to explain the underlying characteristics of foundations and, by analyzing these characteristics, help to reveal a number of intrinsic problems that need to be addressed. character foundation network
