  • Foreign aid for a post-euphoric Eastern Europe: the limitations of western assistance in developing civil society
    Narozhna, Tanya
    This article raises three considerations with respect to attempts by Western governments and donor institutions to foster democracy and produce an 'instant' civil society in the post-socialist world. ... First, there is the divergent intellectual/academic discussion in both the East and West about themeaning of civil society. It is contended that the lack of a substantive consensus on this issue has directly affected donor practices to promote democracy and strengthen civil society in Eastern Europe. The second consideration refers to donors' inconsistent support of civil society (howeverdefined), which has exposed 'aid' as lacking any long-term strategy. The third consideration revolves around the issue of how Western assistance practices with regard to civil society have shaped a democratic façade for theoligarchic regime in one post-Soviet state 3 Ukraine, and have contributed to the emergence of new types of grant-oriented civic activists and non-governmental organizations (NGOs), known as grantoids (grant-eaters). It is argued that the different points of departure in conceptualizing civil society in the East and in the West create an opposing set of references and aseries of practical problems
