    Economic Research Centre Strengthening Municipalities in Azerbaijan Concept Paper This paper has been prepared within the framework of Oxfam, GB and ICCO, Netherlands co-funded project “The Role of Local self-governments in Poverty reduction in Azerbaijan” Expert group members working on the concept: Research Team Leader: Rovshan Agayev: Other Team Members: Gubad Ibadoglu Azer Mehtiyev Aydin Aslanov Translated by: Elshad Mikayilov Baku 2007 1 INTRODUCTION Democratic political system, creation of effective public management and eradication of socio-economic recession are the major challenges facing most of the world countries. The analysis of experience across highly developed countries reveals that the road to democratic and economic prosperity is quite clear. The matter has more to deal with the rejection of authoritarian type of management both in political and economic realms, establishment of market oriented relations and liberal economic environment. Liberal political and economic system in the country first and foremost presupposes deeper decentralization along with the autonomous strong municipal institutions from the perspectives of administration and financial capacity. However, a number of transition countries do not have any precise policy or concept for decentralization. They seem to be conservative towards any other external efforts or initiatives with that respect. The situation is even more complicated by a higher level of corruption in public administration and high-rank public officials preponderantly pursuing their own

  • Catalogue Des Cols D'azerbaïdjan
    CATALOGUE DES COLS D’AZERBAÏDJAN 1. Ce catalogue Ce catalogue établit une première petite liste de cols en Azerbaïdjan. Dans ce pays de paysages très différents (de la haute montagne jusqu’à la plus grande ville du monde à une altitude inférieure à celle de la mer…) plus de la moitié des cols recensés sont frontaliers avec les pays voisins. 2. L’histoire de l’Azerbaïdjan Peuplé depuis l’âge de pierre, le territoire actuel d’Azerbaïdjan a connu au fil des siècles beaucoup d’influences externes des grands empires ou des dynasties de cette région. En ordre chronologique les Scythes, les Mèdes, les Sassanides, les Sajides, les Chirvanchahs, les Ravvadides et les Cheddadides (liste non–exhaustive). L’élément commun pendant toute cette période était l’influence de la Perse voisine (devenue par la suite l’Iran) et de la religion musulmane. Les Turcs et les Ottomans ont aussi eu leurs périodes de domination de ce territoire. L’influence russe devient de plus en plus forte pendant le XIX e siècle – surtout après la découverte de ressources pétrolières dans la région. Vers la fin de la première guerre mondiale l’Azerbaïdjan (avec la Géorgie et l’Arménie) forme la République démocratique fédérative de Transcaucasie jusqu’à l’indépendance, peu de temps après, du pays d’Azerbaïdjan. Ce nouveau pays, établi en mai 1918 a innové en plusieurs domaines : le premier pays démocrate parlementaire musulman en Asie, le premier pays musulman à accorder le droit de vote aux femmes ainsi qu’un régime séculaire pour l’état (pas de religion officielle).

  • Copper Pollution in Lesser Caucasus at the Origin of the Greatest History
    EDDA How H2a1 MtDNA Lineages in Lesser Caucasus have recorded and transmitted the most ancient and longest lasting Human Testimony, describing the Transition between Neolithic and Eneolithic on the Kura-Araxes Rivers, the Rise of R1a Y- Chromosome lineages who triggered a Military pendular Migration in Eurasia and the founding Events of the Achaemenid Empire Marc-Olivier Rondu To Gloria, my grandmother, the little shepherdess of Pandoses who drove the cattle in the mountain Cover Picture: Noble Woman from Shushi, early 20th century Legal deposit: July 2017 Copyright © 2017 Marc-Olivier Rondu all rights reserved 2 The modern phylogeography of H2a1 MtDNA questioned us about the origin of the haplogroup and why it has spread worldwide in a star like shape pattern whose symmetric centre is located in Lesser Caucasus. Our research led us back to the Lesser Caucasus during Holocene where the obsidian and riches mining resources attracted foreign populations who settled among Hunter Gatherers in a narrow band of highlands. While the use of obsidian continued locally, metallurgy and trade at long distance dominated the global stakes, transforming the highlands formerly dominated by Farmers and Hunter Gatherers into a cosmopolitan hub of exchange. Pressure and competition between representatives of foreign communities who managed the providing of precious resources increased the social impact of ‘genetic incidents’ which occurred in a single brotherhood born from a ruling couple represented today by the young male found in the Areni-1 Bird’s Eye Cave (L1a/ H2a1 MtDNA). Thanks to ancient sources and ancient DNA, we demonstrate in that paper that recurrent metal pollution (copper) is suspected to be responsible of a Oculocutaneous Albinism in a brotherhood born in ruling family from the southern Lesser Caucasus.
