Public Association for Assistance to Free Economy on Condition of Right
Public Association for Assistance to Free Economy On condition of right to property in 2011-2012 in Azerbaijan Authors: Ulviyya Asadzada Ziya Guliyev Editor: Zohrab Ismayil Corrector: Kamala Aghayeva Baku, Qanun Publication House, 2013 Funded by National Endowment for Democracy.

SUMMARY The research shows that the causes of the violations of property rights is not a sectoral. Such violations are due to many reasons. One of the main reasons behind the violation of the right to property is similar to other violations of law is itt’s inability to ensure rule of law, dependence of courts on executive structures, politically motivated decisions. İn this regard, attention is brought to the lack of independence of the judicial system of Azerbaijan, and the cases of corruption in the court system in a number of international reports. While analysing the cases of violation of the right to property, in 2011 it becomes evident that the courts have made decisions in favour of the executive authority structures instead of citizens. This decreases the belief of citizens toward the court, causes a situation as if they have “voluntarily” abandoned their properties and “gave up”. -

Together with SOCAR’s* non- financial parameters, this re- port reflects on the steps taken to achieve social and economic targets, preserve the environ- ment and resolve environmen- tal issues. Unlike the last year’s report, the 2012 report demonstrates that the Company’s deci- sion-making process is guided by the principles of comprehen- sive approach towards social and economic development along with environmental pre- servation. This has been made possible by applying transpa- rent and advanced international standards and creating added value in operations. Compared to the last year, this report covered more parame- ters which reflect the results of the Company’s sustainable development. We cannot call 2012 an or- dinary year. During this year the Company not only man- aged to preserve its dynamic development in the Caspian region but also took significant steps to become a reputable organization on a global scale. This proves that the Company successfully follows defined strategic priorities and adopts balanced administrative deci- sions. -

Tangible cultural heritage is defined in the Law of the Republic of Azerbaijan on Preservation of Historical and Cultural Monuments1. For the purposes of this Appendix, tangible cultural heritage is taken to have paleontological, archaeological, historical, cultural, artistic and religious values. The survey, covering the areas shown in Figures 5D.1 to 5D.4, considered historical and cultural monuments, including UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Registered Archaeological Monuments, Architectural Monuments, Monuments of History, War Memorials, Reserve Areas/Habitats Protected by the State and Monument Protection Zones. It has also considered Registered Religious Monuments and non-registered religious sites, including cemeteries. Registered Religious Monuments are registered by the State Committee for Work with Religious Associations under Presidential Decree No. 512 regarding the supervision of religious organisations. It should be noted that sites outside the onshore SWAP 3D Seismic Survey Area were visited as part of the survey to provide context and wider regional information. Site Reconnaissance Methods Archaeological and cultural heritage sites were initially identified from literature review and lists of locally and nationally designated archaeological, cultural and historical sites within the 3D Seismic Survey Area provided by the Ministry of Culture and Tourism (MoCT). Historic cartographic sources2 and satellite mapping3 were reviewed prior to the survey, to inform survey planning. -

Natural Nation: Cultivating a Post-Extractive Azerbaijan
Natural Nation: Cultivating a Post-Extractive Azerbaijan Zsuzsanna Dominika Ihar 2020 Word count: 31264 A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Research), Department of Sociology and Social Policy, School of Social and Political Sciences, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, University of Sydney. Year of Award: 2021 1 Statement of originality I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. Zsuzsanna Dominika Ihar 30th December 2020 2 Abstract The past decade has witnessed the proliferation of numerous ‘greening projects’ across Azerbaijan, aimed at transforming environments vandalised by hydrocarbon exploration and industrial agriculture into biodiverse havens, zones of conservation, and sustainable residential developments. This has been achieved via the uptake of remediation, horticulture, and naturalisation technologies by both state and corporate actors, shifting practices of extraction towards that of an alleged ‘post-extraction’. Here, ecological initiatives designed to cultivate and alter physical environments, as well as material interactions, seep into intimate circulations of life, reconfiguring relations between an array of human, vegetal, and animal beings. With a marked capacity for worldmaking, these initiatives have also become foundational elements in state- sponsored projects concerned with the renewal of national identity, territorial borders, and articulations of a cosmopolitan agenda. This dissertation attends to the ways in which more-than-human life has been mobilised by Azerbaijan's government, particularly for the purposes of nation-making and the creation of post- extractive environments. I look at how these processes have led to the reconfiguration of more- than-human relations and the transformation of everyday life in the name of a bourgeoning form of eco-nationalism. -
