The first was the 61-st international congress on Phenomenology organized by the World Institute for Advanced Phenomenological Research and learning. The congress was hosted by Istanbul Kultur University from June 27 to July 1, 2011. The topic of the congress was the following: Phenomenology and the Human Position in the Cosmos – The Life-World, Nature, Earth The second was the OPO IV World Conference on Phenomenology held in Spain, in Segovia from the 19th to the 23rd of September 2011. The topic of the conference: Reason and Life. Responsibility of Philosophy The 61-st congress on phenomenology offered a vast range of problems commencing with phenomenology of poetry and fine arts and embracing the phenomenological interpretations of cosmology in relation with human creativity. In the reports and discussions the cosmos was unfolded as a metaphysical area of creative forces which influenced the human mind to go beyond the constitutive activity of thinking to the unconscious sphere of human creativity. According to phenomenological viewing the life now enters a new area of development under the spell of cosmic-metaphysical forces. The life appears to be the phenomenon which takes into account the inter-phenomenal openness of being toward the metaphysi- cal sphere. At the Istanbul Congress these complicated and profound problems of contemporary world were discussed from various angles. Human-transcendental position in the cosmos, which sounds as a counterpoint to his\her natural position appeared to be the backbone and the major theme of the discussions. It is not easy to outline all the diversities of problems, methodological approaches, suggestions and ideas revolving round the nucleus of central topic but all the debates eventually came to some reducible position to the basic dilemmas serving as a starting point of the congress. While discussing these problems the participants took into account the cosmological theory of “big bang“ concerning the incipient explosion of the nucleus 7 of the matter and extension of the system of galaxies. It was also important the suggestion concerning the intelligibility of the universe in accord with theory of relativity and other various ideas like the issue of “black holes” within the matter, etc... But all these conceptions make cosmological viewpoints according to physics. To speak about metaphysical aspects of cosmos in sphere of genesis of being we also need philosophical approach. The major leitmotif of Istanbul congress was the phenomenological approach to the cosmic forces in its integrity with human creativity. Phenomenology assists to grasp the universe in dynamic process of becoming the being and besides, it takes into account the sense-formation act of ideas reflecting the process of this cosmic development. Putting in other words, phenomenology embraces the motion of cosmic forces in its integrity with transcendental conceptual basis. Such a complicated problem is far from the physical viewpoint. For the physicist the cosmos presents the area of physical-celestial bodies and cosmic relations are reducible unto the interactions of physical objects. Even if we shared the position of Einshtein concerning the intelligibility of the cosmos it would be the intelligibility from the viewpoint of physicist – who considers the cosmological concepts and ideas as an ideal, as stable basic forms which determines objectively physical objects and relations in-between. Einshtein’s viewpoint of cosmic intelligibility implies that order

  • Georgia 2014 Human Rights Report
    GEORGIA 2014 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT Note: Except where otherwise noted, figures and other data do not include the occupied regions of South Ossetia and Abkhazia. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The constitution of Georgia provides for an executive branch that reports to the prime minister, a unicameral parliament, and a separate judiciary. The government is accountable to parliament. The president is the head of state and commander in chief. Parliamentary elections in 2012 marked the first democratic transfer of power since the country’s independence. In the October 2013 presidential election, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe’s Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (OSCE/ODIHR) concluded that the vote “was efficiently administered, transparent and took place in an amicable and constructive environment.” While the election results reflected the will of the people, observers raised several concerns, including allegations of political pressure at the local level, inconsistent application of the election code, and limited oversight of campaign finance violations. Security forces reported to civilian authorities. The most important human rights problems reported during the year were the following: societal/interpersonal violence, including domestic violence and politically motivated violence; increased societal intolerance of members of minority groups, as reflected in hate speech, interference with religious worship, and intimidation that prevented freedom of assembly; and persistent shortcomings in the legal system that led to incomplete investigations, premature charging of suspects, and inappropriate use of pretrial detention. Other problems reported during the year included abuse by law enforcement officials; substandard prison conditions; allegations of political influence in the administration of justice; allegations of improper electronic surveillance; pressure on opposition figures to withdraw from local elections; and substandard living conditions for internally displaced persons (IDPs).

U.S. policy expressly supports Georgia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders, and Georgia is a leading recipient of U.S. aid in Europe and Eurasia. Many observers consider Georgia to have a “hybrid” political system, containing both democratic and nondemocratic elements. The center-left Georgian Dream-Democratic Georgia (GD) party has governed Georgia since 2012. Controversy over the October 2020 parliamentary elections, an opposition boycott of parliament, and the February 2021 arrest of opposition leader Nika Melia led to heightened political tensions. European Union (EU) efforts to mediate Georgia’s political crisis led to a negotiated agreement in April 2021 that included opposition parties’ entry into parliament and Melia’s release. Although Georgia faces high rates of poverty and underemployment, its economy entered a period of relatively strong growth in 2017. In 2020, due to the impact of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, Georgia’s gross domestic product (GDP) declined by an estimated 6%. Georgia’s GDP is expected to grow 3.5% to 4% in 2021.

  • Anti-Corruption Reforms in Georgia by Natia
    FACULTY OF SOCIAL SCIENCE RAGNAR NURKSE SCHOOL OF INNOVATION AND GOVERNANCE GRADUATE PROGRAM IN TECHNOLOGY GOVERNACE ANTI-CORRUPTION REFORMS IN GEORGIA BY NATIA LORTKIPANIDZE SUPERVISOR: DR. VEIKO LEMBER Thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts. June 2014 1 Declaration I hereby declare that I am the sole author of this Master Thesis and it has not been presented to any other university for examination Author: Natia Lortkipanidze ‘…..’………….2014 The Master Thesis meets the established requirements Supervisor: Dr. Veiko Lember ‘…..’………….2014 2 Abstract Present thesis aimed at conducting research on definitions, causes and inevitability of the anti- corruption reforms. The theoretical framework is based on a number of different sources and it describes the perspectives with fighting against corruption in the world. The system of the ‘good governance’ plays its special role against the most “dangerous phenomenon” (Tanzi 1998, 4), which is an important weapon to preserve stability and democracy in the country. The empirical part is based on the case of Georgia, which gives as brighter picture, how anti corruption reforms were developed after the collapse of the Soviet Union and what role had ‘Rose Revolution’ government during these radical reforms. These radical reforms had numerous negative consequences and exactly with my research paper, I tried to prove these negative consequences, which are reflected in ‘Elite Corruption’ system during 2003-2013. These research paper and my opinion is based on various sources, The World Bank, Ttanparency International, different Georgian newspapers and Non Governmental Organizations (NGO) research papers, where are introduced the previous and present government officials considerations and concepts about the influence of the government during the reforms.
