Reevaluating USAID and Its Role in Eastern Europe's Fragile Balance: 'USAID and Eastern Europe' by John R. Rieger
The book arrives amid efforts by the current administration to shut down USAID-an agency long accused of inefficiencies and politicization. But while critiques of the institution are valid in parts, Rieger argues that eliminating USAID altogether could undermine long-term American influence and compromise global peace efforts.As global tensions rise and debate intensifies over the future of the United States Agency for International Development (USAID), a timely new book 'USAID and Eastern Europe' by John R. Rieger, offers a critical reexamination of the agency's role in one of the world's most volatile regions. It provides a compelling historical account of the agency's involvement in Eastern European countries caught between the geopolitical agendas of Russia, the United States, and Western Europe.
The book arrives amid efforts by the current administration to shut down USAID-an agency long accused of inefficiencies and politicization. But while critiques of the institution are valid in parts, Rieger argues that eliminating USAID altogether could undermine long-term American influence and compromise global peace efforts.
With the ongoing war in Ukraine and growing instability across Eastern Europe, Rieger spotlights the consequences of sidelining American soft power. The book records how nations in this region have been repeatedly used as pawns in the broader struggle between superpowers-forced into cycles of instability, dependency, and geopolitical manipulation. Despite its imperfections, USAID has played a pivotal role in offering support, infrastructure, and hope where few alternatives existed.
This book's unflinching look at international realities, stripped of partisan rhetoric, sets it apart. The author brings a balanced, research-driven narrative that gives voice to the regional challenges and international stakes few in Washington are willing to confront.
In an age of military buildup and diplomatic retreat, 'USAID and Eastern Europe' call for a reassessment of tools that have helped maintain peace-not just in theory, but on the ground. Don't miss the opportunity and order your copy now!
