The book examines the contrasting strategies of the EU and the US in promoting democracy abroad, highlighting ideological and political differences. The US emphasizes grassroots civil society development and can implement sanctions effectively, while the EU focuses on enhancing state capacity and exerts normative influence without strong leverage. It argues that both approaches can complement each other but are suited for different contexts and partners. A detailed analysis of Western involvement in Ukraine's Orange Revolution illustrates these dynamics.
