520 | 1 | |a "Throughout the 1990s, attempts by the Eastern European nations to integrate themselves into the world economy risked foundering on inexperience, corruption, and well-intentioned but wrong-headed economic strategy." "How does one help remake a society from the ground up, not in one's own image, but in such a way as to integrate democratic and free market ideals with the extant culture? How is such change best orchestrated without falling prey to obstructionist traditions on the one hand and an excessively paternalistic mindset on the other? What role can - indeed must - philanthropy and the transfer of all-important technologies play in bringing about this change?" "Quandt's story here is about more than simply throwing money at problems. Rather it is a tale of a grass-roots approach that blended Western ideals with an understanding of and a tolerance for values, goals, work habits, and implementation strategies that often clashed with Western preconceptions. The communist system actively discouraged cooperation, fearing that alliances among like-minded groups could engender opposition and organized resistance to the entrenched status quo. Stressing cooperation as a vital social good, Quandt details how foundational elements such as civil society, higher education and research, agricultural efficiency, environmental awareness, and legal reform are best engineered, demonstrating in compelling narrative detail what factors aided and which obstructed success."--BOOK JACKET. | |
