 ==Attack on Philanthropy==
-In an article on philanthropy’s role in shaping policy, which she co-wrote with her brother, Gaffney criticized various liberal-minded foundations such as Rockefeller and MacArthur for their “ironic vision of international orderliness,” which she said “must be contrasted with the world as it actually is.” The authors write: “And then there is private philanthropy, among the least recognized forces in the shaping of United States security policy. Specifically, the leading funders in international security programs at U.S. think-tanks, academic institutions, and grassroots groups are generously underwriting an ambitious and highly politicized agenda. Today, as in the past, arms control and other international legal endeavors are the organizing principle behind much of what the Rockefeller Brothers’ Fund calls the ‘One World Program.’ The operative premise has been described by syndicated columnist Charles Krauthammer as ‘a world imagined [where] laws, treaties and binding international agreements can domesticate the international arena.’
