  • Title of Thesis: ABSTRACT CLASSIFYING BIAS
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: CLASSIFYING BIAS IN LARGE MULTILINGUAL CORPORA VIA CROWDSOURCING AND TOPIC MODELING Team BIASES: Brianna Caljean, Katherine Calvert, Ashley Chang, Elliot Frank, Rosana Garay Jáuregui, Geoffrey Palo, Ryan Rinker, Gareth Weakly, Nicolette Wolfrey, William Zhang Thesis Directed By: Dr. David Zajic, Ph.D. Our project extends previous algorithmic approaches to finding bias in large text corpora. We used multilingual topic modeling to examine language-specific bias in the English, Spanish, and Russian versions of Wikipedia. In particular, we placed Spanish articles discussing the Cold War on a Russian-English viewpoint spectrum based on similarity in topic distribution. We then crowdsourced human annotations of Spanish Wikipedia articles for comparison to the topic model. Our hypothesis was that human annotators and topic modeling algorithms would provide correlated results for bias. However, that was not the case. Our annotators indicated that humans were more perceptive of sentiment in article text than topic distribution, which suggests that our classifier provides a different perspective on a text’s bias.

Existence of ancient human being on Georgian territory is confirmed from the early stages of anthropogenesis. Nearby Dmanisi valley (80 km south-west of Tbilisi) the remnants of homo erectus are found, age of them is about 1,8 million years old. At present it is the oldest trace in Euro-Asia. Later on the Stone Age a man took the whole territory of Georgia. Former settlements of Ashel period (400–100 thousand years ago) are discovered as on the coast of the Black Sea as in the regions within highland Georgia. Approximately 6–7 thousands years ago people on the territory of Georgia began to use as the instruments not only the stone but the metals as well.

  • Elite Political Networks, Network Change
    ELITE POLITICAL NETWORKS, NETWORK CHANGE, AND VIOLENT CONFLICT IN UKRAINE AND GEORGIA by ANDREW MACDONALD AKIN BARBARA A. CHOTINER, COMMITTEE CHAIR KARL DEROUEN TERRY ROYED SIMANTI LAHIRI MARGARET PEACOCK A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Political Science in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2013 Copyright Andrew MacDonald Akin 2013 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT The degree of variance in political outcomes after the Soviet collapse remains a subject of political inquiry because of the complicated nature of republic experiences during transition. This dissertation explores the variance in post-Soviet transitional violence, or its absence, in Ukraine and Georgia, by using social network analysis. The argument made is that the degree to which political elites in Georgia and in Ukraine were connected or fragmented is an untested, but highly relevant, factor in conflict onset. While the impact of elites on regime transition and armed conflict is a well-reviewed subject in the comparative literature, no study formally models elite networks as an explanation for why conflict begins, or abates. At the center of the argument is the structure of political elite networks created by personal or professional connections. Using social network analysis methods and eleven original datasets—from material in English, Russian, and Ukrainian—this study demonstrates that Ukrainian elites maintained well-connected and more densely tied networks both before and after the Soviet collapse than did elites in Georgia. Conclusions drawn from this study suggest that well-integrated elites create mechanisms by bargaining, or the creation of high social capital, to avoid conflict.

Occupied Abkhazia to strip Georgian citizens of right to inheritance The so-called parliament of Georgia‟s occupied region of Abkhazia has passed a bill in its first reading which strips a group of Georgian citizens of their right to receive their inheritance in the region. The bill says that the “offspring of those who fought against the sovereignty of Abkhazia, took part in military operations or supported the occupying force [referring to the central Georgian government] will not have the right to receive inheritance in Abkhazia”. Georgian Minister of Reconciliation and Civil Equality Ketevan Tsikhelashvili says that the decision is the continuation of the occupation policy (Agenda.ge, April 10, 2019).

  • 25 Years of Independence, Georgia's
    Georgians may be rightfully proud of their ancient his- tory, but their modern state has just passed a stage of infancy. Approximately a quarter of century ago, Georgia started to build a new nation and a new state. The opening conditions were not promising. Under the civil wars, col- lapsing economic system and nonexistent public services not many people believed in viability of the Georgian state. Today, twenty five years later Georgia still faces multiple challenges: territorial, political, economic, social, etc. But on the balance, it is an accomplished state with fairly func- tional institutions, vibrant civil society, growing economy, a system of regional alliances and close cooperative relations with a number of international actors, European Union and NATO among them. How the progress was achieved, in which areas Georgia is more successful and what the greatest deficits are which it still faces and how to move forward are the questions this volume tries to answer. This book tries to reconstruct major tasks that the Georgian state was facing in the beginning, and then track success and failure in each of those areas till today. Thus, the authors of six chapters deal with nation-, state-, and democracy-building in Georgia as well as evolution of civil society, economic development, and last but not least, the role and place of Georgia in the new post-Cold-War interna- tional system. We very much hope that this volume will contribute to the debate about Georgia’s development. Since it is based on academic research, the authors tried to make it a good and useful read for anybody interested in all matters of Georgia.

  • Europe Outside of Europe: a Critical Geopolitics of the Europeanisation of Georgia
    EUROPE OUTSIDE OF EUROPE: A CRITICAL GEOPOLITICS OF THE EUROPEANISATION OF GEORGIA Maxim van Asseldonk 04-08-2019 Supervised by prof. dr. Henk van Houtum Radboud University Nijmegen Human Geography, specialisation ‘Conflicts, Territories, and Identities’ Word count (excl. table of contents, bibliography, etc.): 34.513. i ii PREFACE On February 25th, 2019, after a four and half hour flight from Amsterdam, I landed at Tbilisi’s international airport. Walking up to the passport control booth after alighting the plane, it struck me that there was not one, but two officers at work there. Evidently, the young Georgian customs officer was being trained by her more experienced peer. Both officers’ uniforms were adorned with flags in red and white; those of their country. The older officer, however, clearly disseminating his experience to new employees, did not wear a flag on his shoulder that should endow him with any legal authority in Georgia. He was Austrian. Experienced customs officers from EU-countries training younger ones from various other countries shouldn’t be a particularly noteworthy occurrence. However, while an Austrian - clearly European - flag need not provide one with any particular legal standing, the discursive story is a little more complicated. After an interaction that lasted little more than a minute - EU-citizens are rarely questioned upon entering Georgia - the Georgian officer stamped an outline of the Georgian territory into my document of identity. The casual traveller could be easily forgiven for believing the Georgian borders are as straightforward as this simple outline suggests. “Here is Georgia, and only once you cross one of these lines, you are in another country (or possibly at the bottom of the Black Sea),” the stamp seems to suggest.
