内容説明

Assisting democracy has become a major concern of the international community since the end of the cold war. Not only governments, but private actors - foundations and other nongovernmental organizations - are playing a growing role in these efforts, rivalling that of governments and international institutions. This pathbreaking study examines foundations' democracy assistance programmes in Central Europe in the years immediately following the fall of the Berlin Wall, both measuring their size and evaluating their strategies. "For Democracy's Sake" assesses such efforts in post-cold war Central Europe through extensive field research, a rare series of workshops in which Central Europeans knowledgeable about democracy efforts participated, and the author's own experience as a foundation executive. The book includes chapters concentrating on foundations; efforts in the Czech Republic, Hungary, Poland and Slovakia, a chapter on regional initiatives, and a chapter on the philanthropy of George Soros. This volume offers broadly applicable lessons regarding the most effective strategies, approaches and techniques for helping others develop their own versions of democracy.
