The process began in the fall of 2011, when the Language and Cross-Culture component of Peace Corps Georgia launched a Georgian Country and Culture Guide project and PCVs from different regions volunteered to do research and gather information on their specific areas. After the initial information was gathered, the arduous process of merging the researched information began. Extensive editing followed and this is the end result.

COUNTERBALANCING MARKETIZATION INFORMALLY: INSTITUTIONAL REFORMS AND INFORMAL ECONOMIC PRACTICES IN GEORGIA (2003-2012) By Lela Rekhviashvili Submitted to Central European University Doctoral School of Political Science, Public Policy and International Relations In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Supervisor: Professor Béla Greskovits (Word count 65,606) Budapest, Hungary CEU eTD Collection 2015 Abstract This dissertation explores the relationship between market-enhancing institutions and informal economic practices. It critically engages with the dominant perspective on informal economic practices (new institutionalism), and elaborates an alternative, Polanyian institutionalist perspective. Relying on the Polanyian framework, I argue that social inclusion and wellbeing of marginalised, informally operating persons and groups cannot be achieved through the establishment of market-enhancing institutions (as suggested by the new-institutionalist literature), unless institutions for social protection are also established. The prevalence of informality in an aspiring capitalist society is as much related to the lack of institutionalisation of protective measures as it is related to the lack of market supporting institutions. In a context in which the institutionalisation of market economy proceeds without institutionalisation of protective measures, societal resistance and defence against marketization - commodification of land labour and money - can shift to the informal realm.
