While the economic and security dimensions of Turkey’s role in the region have been amply addressed, its cross-border ties with societies in the Caucasus remain under-researched. This issue of the Cauca- sus Analytical Digest illustrates inter-societal relations between Turkey and the three South Caucasus states of Arme- nia, Azerbaijan, and Georgia, as well as with the de-facto state of Abkhazia, through the prism of NGO and diaspora contacts. Although this approach is by necessity selective, each of the four articles describes an important segment of transboundary societal relations between Turkey and the Caucasus. -

The Soybean Experience of the Black Sea Region
HELIA, 33, Nr. 53, p.p. 85-90, (2010) UDC 633.854.78:631:81 DOI: 10.2298/HEL1053085K A LESSON FOR SUNFLOWER: THE SOYBEAN EXPERIENCE OF THE BLACK SEA REGION Kara, S.M.*, Uyanik, M. Ordu University, Faculty of Agriculture, Department of Field Crops, 52000, Ordu, Turkey Received: April 10, 2010 Accepted: August 10, 2010 SUMMARY Oilseeds are one of the most valuable crops in Turkey’s agriculture and economy as they are the most important source of vegetable oil, feed for live- stock and, as of recently, biodiesel feedstock. At the present time, Turkey can- not even meet its own demand for oilseeds, and this problem stems mainly from a lack of planning in the production phase. At present, more than half of the country’s need for oil is s met by imports and the import value of crude veg- etable oil and oilseed crops is the second largest figure in the country’s total exchange expenditures, trailing only petroleum products. In the last two decades, although the total oilseeds production has increased nearly 20%, the area planted to oilseeds has gone down by 12%. Among oilseeds, soybean has been hit the hardest, as the area planted to the crop and its production decreased by 80% and 68%, respectively. In the Black Sea region, including the Samsun and Ordu provinces, which used to be the country’s largest soybean producer, soybean areas and production have also decreased drastically. The soybean acreage and production in the Samsun province have dropped by 60% and 18%, respectively. Worse still, in the Ordu province, where the country’s first soybean oil factory was set up in 1965, soy- bean is not grown anymore. -
History in the Context of the Georgian-Abkhazian Conflict*
BRILL Iran and the Caucasus 18 (2074) 289-374 History in the Context of the Georgian-Abkhazian Conflict* George Hewitt School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London Abstract The 2014 disturbances in the Ukraine occasioned renewed discussion of the 2008 Russo- Georgian War. As the situation continued to worsen in eastern Ukraine, US President Obama announced on a visit to Poland at the start of June that the US and NATO would strengthen ties even with the non-NATO-member-states of the Ukraine, Moldova and Georgia. This last has aspirations of membership, even though it does not control the re publics of South Ossetia and Abkhazia, which most of the world nevertheless regards as in tegral parts of Georgia. As long as the Georgian-Abkhazian dispute remains unresolved, there will be problems regarding inter-state relations with/for western Transcaucasia. And there can be no resolution of the Abkhazian issue without a proper understanding of Ab khazia’s history (both ancient and more recent); it was to try to ensure that the debate is not based on misconceptions, unsubstantiated assertions or even plain errors that this ar ticle was written, it is grounded on a consideration of a range of materials (from Agathias' Greek text through relevant discussions in Georgian, Russian and English). The toppling of Abkhazia’s democratically elected president (Aleksandr Ankvab) at the end of May 2014 makes the question of Abkhazia even more topical. Keywords Abkhazia, Georgia, Georgian-Abkhazian Dispute, Caucasian History Events during the spring of 2014 in the Ukraine (in particular Russia’s reacquisition of the Crimea) reawakened Western memories of the short Russo-Georgian war of August 2008. -

Circular Migration Between Georgia and Turkey: Is Triple Win a Solution for Illegal Employment? Prof
14 INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON EURASIAN ECONOMIES 2016 Circular Migration Between Georgia and Turkey: Is Triple Win a Solution for Illegal Employment? Prof. Dr. Adem Kalça (Karadeniz Technical University, Turkey) Yılmaz Onur Ari (Bayburt University, Turkey) Abstract Migrants who come from Georgia is one of the main issues in Turkey’s migration policy. Just like other Eastern Bloc Countries, after socialism collapsed in Georgia, its economy had many problems and impoverished many Georgia citizens. Therefore, Georgian people migrate to Turkey in a circular way in order to work or trade with the strategy for survival. Unfortunately, circular movements from Georgia to Turkey are not subject to a program and it causes many problems like illegal employment, bad living conditions and lack of migrants’ skill and knowledge development. The concept of circular migration and the effects of triple win solution are discussed theoretically in this study. Also a swot analysis of demographic and labor market of autonomous border region of Georgia is made and both negatives and positives of Georgian circular migration to Eastern Black Sea Region are analyzed. According to the results, it’s emphasized that a circular migration program between Georgia and Turkey is necessary to practice the triple win scenario. Triple win scenario supports many economic benefits for all three elements of circular migration, namely home and host countries and the migrants themselves, provided that there is a regulated circular migration. Several measures can be taken to prevent unregistered employment and poor working conditions of migrants, the most importantly the spontaneous circular movement between Georgia and Turkey can be transformed to programmed circular movement.
