As long as our national state exists, Heydar Aliyev, the founder of our Motherland, will always live in the heart of the Azerbaijani people, his bright ideas will constantly illuminate our path. *Corresponding author Guliyev Arif Jamil Oglu, Doctor of Law, Professor of the Department of International Law of the National Aviation University NASU, Honored Worker of Education of Ukraine, E-Mail: [email protected] Received: July 04, 2020; Accepted: July 10, 2020; Published: July 18, 2020 Introduction successfully fulfills this mission during the COVID-19 pandemic that shocked the world, developing a strategy to combat this threat, as well as other important moments of our difficult days. In a pandemic, each state has two main choices: protecting people’s lives and saving the economy. Azerbaijan is one of the countries which, taking into account economic risks, without hesitation chose the first option. Thus, he once again confirmed that he is a social state. There has not been a pandemic of this magnitude in the last 100 years, therefore, of course, there is no means and experience of dealing with it. How to act in such a situation, where to start? Each The ancient Romans left us a good tradition at the jubilee country seeks an answer to this question, forms its own policy. Due celebrations to pronounce “triumphal anniversaries” in honor of to the foresight of President Ilham Aliyev, the right decisions were the hero of the day. Those who deliver a festive speech are usually timely taken to reduce losses to a minimum. The state provides divided into two categories: those who mainly treat the hero of the maximum social support to the most diverse segments of the day with compliments, and those who concentrate on the scientific population. It is no coincidence that Azerbaijan is one of the and analytical tools of the essential explanation and typological countries characterized by the effectiveness of measures to combat “frame” of the hero’s face. In this case, I strongly consider myself coronavirus. Time will answer all questions, but we want to pay in the second category. Man is made great by his deeds, but in attention to the human side of the problem-this is a depressing order to accomplish great deeds, one must be no higher than picture all over the world. From this point of view, it would be people, one must be with them. Heydar Aliyev traveled a difficult appropriate to recall the idea expressed by the first vice-president path of independence and the formation of Azerbaijan together, of Azerbaijan Mehriban Aliyeva in an appeal to the people: “There shoulder to shoulder, with his people, showing an unprecedented is no one else’s misfortune. Pain and suffering have no limits” [1]. dedication in an extremely difficult period in the name of his salvation. His heart was beating in unison with the hearts of Throughout the entire history of mankind, peoples were saved millions of Azerbaijanis.

Revival of National Spirit and Self-Awareness In the 1969-1982s, when Heydar Aliyev first headed Azerbaijan, Pages of History Bring Up and Revive Memories they also became a period of revival of the national spirit and The rich biography of the national leader Heydar Aliyev is full national identity. Half a century ago, this brilliant personality, who of bright and significant events that related to his personal life, already conquered the heart of the people, and then became one and, at the same time, the fate of the entire Azerbaijani people. He of the most outstanding statesmen of the world, better understood held high government posts, was the first person in the republic, the mobilizing and guiding role of the press to achieve its goals. and then in the independent Azerbaijan state, but he never stood Therefore, Heydar Aliyev in a special way, with his characteristic above people, but was next to them, among them. Heydar Aliyev sensitivity, belonged to the press, journalists. He was also notable has always been sensitive and responsive person, attentive to the for openness to the press. His well-known interview during his needs of the common people. That is what he won for himself a work as first secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist huge popular love. Heydar Aliyev himself always believed in the Party of Azerbaijan, published in Literaturnaya Gazeta under the creative, creative power of the people. His wise philosophy of life heading “Let justice take the upper hand,” resonated throughout was constantly confirmed by his great works. the Union. For the first time, the first person openly criticized the press for flaws that no one dared to talk about. The doctor of historical sciences, Dilyara Seidzade, wrote this: “...The word is Aliyev’s most powerful weapon. He enjoys it Contrary to the fact that Heydar Aliyev was torn away from perfectly, on the verge of the highest art ... a huge sense of inner his homeland for many years, no matter where he is or at what tact, giving him the ability to penetrate the pain and anxiety of posts in foreign lands, he always remembered the ethno social, everyone...” Over the many years that have separated us from the ethnopolitical and ethnocultural features and characteristics of his era of Heydar Aliyev, much has been said about his deep intellect, native people. Why? For what? I believe that Heydar Aliyev often, phenomenal memory, and strong-willed qualities. Heydar Aliyev especially at the final stages of perestroika, mentally prepared was able to talk with the people, the representative of the Diaspora himself for a hypothetical return to some leadership post in organization of Azerbaijan so that every citizen perceived what renewed Azerbaijan... was said as an appeal personally to him. And this is not given to The January tragedy of 1990 was a severe shock for the entire everyone [2]. A subtle psychologist and diplomat, he was able to Azerbaijani people and Heydar Aliyev. In those difficult, tragic capture the tiniest nuances of the interlocutor’s mood. days, he was with his people. This great man combined the prophetic foresight of a big politician, Heydar Aliyev returned to the leadership of Azerbaijan in a very brilliant oratory talent and the ability to clearly and firmly, step by difficult time. The authorities faced such difficult tasks as bringing step, follow the intended goal. Heydar Aliyev was a leader on a the republic out of a deep political and economic crisis, ending national scale with the highest intellectual potential and excellent the enemy’s military aggression, popularizing Azerbaijan in the human qualities, as a confirmation of the words of the ancient world, protecting national interests. But they do not offer him Greek philosopher Socrates: “When a word does not hit, then a any posts, moreover, the “neo-democrats” immediately send him stick will not help”. The principle and selflessness, kindness and “to the honorary retirement isolation” at the place of Maloya nobility of a leader were manifested in all life situations. Heydar homeland in Nakhchivan, on a rather distant periphery from Baku, Aliyev was sure that “in life everyone chooses fame or dishonor, far from the epicenter of political and state life. But the country personal well-being or public duty, self-interest or conscience”.

    STATEMENT BY H.E. MR. ILHAM ALIYEV, PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN MEETING OF HEADS OF STATE AND GOVERNMENT “FINANCING THE 2030 AGENDA FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT IN THE ERA OF COVID-19 AND BEYOND” 29 September 2020 Mr. Secretary-General, Distinguished Heads of State and Government, Azerbaijan attaches great importance to the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals. Our success was reflected in the “Sustainable Development Report 2020”, where Azerbaijan ranks 54th among 166 countries in the Sustainable Development Goals Index. Azerbaijan’s GDP tripled in the last 17 years. The external public debt of Azerbaijan is one of the lowest in the world. Azerbaijan has the lowest external debt among the oil exporting countries. Foreign Exchange Reserves of Azerbaijan exceed the external public debt by 6 times. Azerbaijan places a special emphasis on the equal distribution of energy revenues between current and the future generations. To this end, the State Oil Fund was established. The assets of the Fund currently exceed the GDP of the country. Azerbaijan has achieved one of the highest income equality levels. As a result of the Armenian occupation more than 1 million Azerbaijanis became refugees and internally displaced persons. About 8 billion Azerbaijani manats amounting to nearly 5 billion USD has been allocated for addressing needs of this vulnerable group. Azerbaijan itself became a donor country. Overall, Azerbaijan provided financial and humanitarian assistance to nearly 120 countries during the last 15 years. Despite the decrease in the state revenues during the pandemic period the government has allocated fund around 3% of GDP to the protection of jobs, economic growth and the public health.

The proposals of the mediator on strengthening the ceasefire in the Nagorno Karabakh conflict On behalf of the Co-chairmanship of the OSCE Minsk Conference (hereinafter – the Mediator), with the purpose of strengthening the ceasefire regime established in the conflict region since May 12, 1994 and creating more favourable conditions for the progress of the peace process, we jointly suggest that the conflicting sides (hereinafter – the Sides) should assume the following obligations: 1. In the event of incidents threatening the ceasefire, to immediately inform the other Side (and in a copy – the Mediator) in written form by facsimile or by the PM line with an exact specification of the place, time and character of the incident and its consequences. The other Side is informed that measures are being taken for non-admission of reciprocal actions which could lead to the aggravation of the incident.

  • Political Leadership After Communism
    POLITICAL LEADERSHIP AFTER COMMUNISM TIMOTHY J. COLTON MORRIS AND ANNA FELDBERG PROFESSOR OF GOVERNMENT AND RUSSIAN STUDIES, HARVARD UNIVERSITY Abstract: Political scientists have paid little attention to the role of leadership. This article suggests a way to think systematically about leaders’ contributions in the former Soviet Union by examining their ability to achieve their own goals and the impact they have. The fifteen countries provide a wide range of variation on the dependent variable. hat have we learned about political leadership in the post-communist Wworld? It is fair to say that it is not as much as we have picked up about a host of other ordering issues, among them political economy, institutional design, ethnic conflict, and public opinion and elections. Considering the significance of the magnitude of the topic, we have not learned nearly enough. There are students of post-communist politics who tend to accept the importance of the theme and those who, embracing structural approaches, tend not to. A majority in the scholarly community fall into the former camp. “Leadership matters,” is how they often put it. “It matters a lot. Why, just look at Gorbachev’s role, and also Yeltsin’s, and then there is Putin, and [fill in the blanks].” However, the majority have seldom thought leadership important enough to make it a primary object of their research. Leaders have figured in a handful of serious political biographies, in natu- ralistic roles in many studies of other topics, in several studies of ideas in politics, and in all manner of op-eds du jour.

Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: Erica Johnson Michael Morgan Chad Bryant © 2016 Benjamin Midas ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Benjamin Midas: Nationalist Rhetoric and Public Legitimacy in Ilham Aliyev’s Azerbaijan (Under the Direction of Erica Johnson) This thesis explores the question of why nondemocratic leaders use nationalist rhetoric in ways very similar to democratic leaders through a case study of Azerbaijan. I argue that Azerbaijan’s president Ilham Aliyev uses nationalist rhetoric in order to build public legitimacy for his regime. Despite not needing to build a base of support for legitimate elections, Aliyev needs to legitimate his regime in the eyes of his citizens. To do so he uses nationalist themes in his speeches that resonate with Azerbaijani population to develop popular support. These themes come from applying theories of nationalism to the context of Azerbaijan. I will show the nationalist themes Aliyev utilizes in his speeches and how the use of those themes changes in response to events in Azerbaijan. Aliyev modulates his nationalist rhetoric in response to events in predictable ways, which shows how he manipulates nationalist themes to generate support. iii TABLE OF CONTENTS CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………………1 CHAPTER 2: LITERATURE REVIEW………………………………………………………...11 CHAPTER 3: CASE STUDY……………………………………………………………………28 CHAPTER 4: CONCLUSION…………………………………………………………………..47 REFERENCES……………………………………………………………………......................50 iv INTRODUCTION Azerbaijan is a small country in the southern Caucasus ruled by President Ilham Aliyev.

    Sociological Papers The Emerging Second Generation of Immigrant Israelis Series Editor: Larissa Remennick Managing Editor: Anna Prashizky Volume 16, 2011 Sponsored by the Leon Tamman Foundation for Research into Jewish Communities SOCIOLOGICAL INSTITUTE FOR COMMUNITY STUDIES BAR-ILAN UNIVERSITY Generation 1.5 Russians in Israel: From Vodka to Latte. Maturation and Integration Processes as Reflected in the Recreational Patterns Liza Rozovsky and Oz Almog The Department of Land of Israel Studies University of Haifa Abstract This article reflects on the process of coming of age among Russian Israelis who immigrated as older children or adolescents. It describes the culture of informal youth groups (tusovkas) of the 1990s that transplanted multiple elements of Russian subversive youth culture of the last Soviet and post-Soviet years onto Israeli soil. These groups - that flourished mainly in peripheral towns of Israel - served as both social safety net for alienated Russian teenagers and the bridge to their gradual acculturation. Entering adulthood, most tusovka members left the streets, completed their academic degrees, and moved to Central Israel in search of lucrative jobs and thriving cultural life. Although young Russian Israelis have adopted many elements of the mainstream lifestyle (particularly in the patterns of residence and entertainment), their social preferences and identity remain distinct in lieu of the lingering Russian cultural legacies. Introduction This article sheds light on the recent changes in the recreational patterns of "Generation 1.5" – Russian, Ukrainian and other former Soviet immigrants who immigrated in Israel along with their parents as preteens or young adolescents during the 1990s. Several factors shaped the recreational patterns of these Generation 1.5'ers during their initial years in Israel: the social characteristics of the Russian aliyah; the unique circumstances of their birth and socialization; and the policies of direct immigrant absorption first instituted in Israel during the 1990s.

  • HEYDER ALIYEV CENTRE, Azerbaijan Zaha Hadid Architects Background in 2013, the Heydar Aliyev Center Opened to the Public in Baku, the Capital of Azerbaijan
    HEYDER ALIYEV CENTRE, Azerbaijan Zaha Hadid Architects Background In 2013, the Heydar Aliyev Center opened to the public in Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan. The cultural center, designed by Zaha Hadid, has become the primary building for the nation's cultural programs, aspiring instead to express the sensibilities of Azeri culture and the optimism of a nation that looks to the future. This report presents a case study of the project. It will include the background information, a synopsis of the architect's mastery of structural design. Also, some special elements of this building will be discussed in detail. And the structural design of the whole complex will be reviewed through diagrams and the simplified computer-based structural analysis. The Heydar Aliyev Center Since 1991, Azerbaijan has been working on modernizing and developing Baku’s infrastructure and architecture in order to depart from its legacy of normative Soviet Modernism. The center is named for Heydar Aliyev, the leader of Soviet-era Azerbaijan from 1969 to 1982, and President of Azerbaijan from October 1993 to October 2003. The project is located in the center of the city. And it played an extremely important role in the development of the city. It breaks from the rigid and often monumental Soviet architecture that is so prevalent in Baku. More importantly, it is a symbol of democratic philosophy thought. Under the influence of the new Azerbaijan party and the Soviet Socialist Republic of Azerbaijan leader’s political and economic reform, the center was also designed to show the potential of the country’s future cultural development, to encourage people to study the history, language, culture, national creed and spiritual values of their own country.
