Heydər Əliyev, Azərbaycan xalqının ümummilli lideri 7 Ramiz Mehdiyev 8 Biblioqrafiya Siz uzun illərdir ki, dövlət qulluğunda fəaliyyət göstərirsi- niz. 1970-80-ci illərdə ulu öndər Heydər Əliyevin rəhbərliyi ilə işləmisiniz. Ulu öndərimiz müstəqil Azərbaycanın rəhbəri kimi fəaliyyətə başlayandan sonra onun ilk təyin etdiyi şəxslərdən biri də siz olmusunuz. O vaxtdan bu günə qədər – 15 il ərzində dövlət qulluğunda, Azərbaycanın dövlət quruculuğunda çox fəal iştirak etmisiniz və bu fəaliyyətinizi indi də davam etdirirsi- niz.

Siz çox fəal insansınız. Çünki gecə-gündüz işləyirsiniz, çox enerjilisiniz. Mən arzu edirəm ki, gələcəkdə də, uzun-uzun illər ərzində belə qalasınız və biz birlikdə bundan sonra da çox böyük işlər görək. İlham Əliyev, Azərbaycan Respublikasının Prezidenti 9 Ramiz Mehdiyev Вы были одним из первых лиц, назначенных нашим великим лидером сразу после того, как он приступил к деятельности на посту руководителя независимого Азер- байджана.

Я высоко ценю вашу деятельность. Находясь на посту руководителя администрации президента, вы выполняете очень важную для нашей страны функцию. Ильхам Алиев, Президент Азербайджанской Республики You have been working in the civil service for many years. You had been working in the 1970-1980s under the leadership of the great leader Heydar Aliyev. Once the great leader began activity as the head of the independent Azerbaijan, you were the one appointed by him. From that time until today – during the 15 years you have been working very actively in the civil service and in Azerbaijan statehood, and you continue to do so now. Your social and scientific activity is very broad and extensive. You have many scientific works. You have a wide range of theoretical views and works on philosophical nature, related to the Azerbaijan statehood, the way that Azerbaijan passed and comprehensive development of our country. Mr.Mehdiyev, I wish you good health and active works for many more years. You are very active person. Because you work round-the-clock, you’re very energetic.

When President Heydar Aliyev came to power in 1993, he secured a ceasefire in Azerbaijan’s war with Armenia and established relative domestic stability, but he also instituted a Soviet-style, vertical power system, based on patronage and the suppression of political dissent. Ilham Aliyev succeeded his father in 2003, continuing and intensifying the most repressive aspects of his father’s rule.

To study such a global problem from the different view points as of native, so foreign scientists is also one of the main aims. The process of globalization, covering various spheres of life, is universal, as for thousands of years separated, remote to some extent, differential events—national or regional peculiarities, habits, complexes strongly influenced by modern technologies, approaching each other with incredible speed and combine as a result of multifaceted economic, socio-political, moral and ideological ties, limiting the kind of peculiarities, lead to the events and processes happening in the world. It is obvious that there is a great influence on the language’s enrichment of the process of globalization, which had taken place in the world.

  • The Two Faces of Azerbaijan's Mr. Aliyev
    The Opinion Pages | EDITORIAL The Two Faces of Azerbaijan’s Mr. Aliyev By THE EDITORIAL BOARD JAN. 11, 2015 President Ilham Aliyev of Azerbaijan does a masterful political Jekyll and Hyde. A cable from the American ambassador to Baku released on WikiLeaks described him as a Michael Corleone-Sonny Corleone figure — referring, respectively, to the coolly calculating and the impetuously violent brothers of the “Godfather” mafia family. Mr. Aliyev is “pro-Western” in many of the ways the West admires: He is suave, well dressed and well spoken in English; he is ready to send his country’s ample supplies of oil and gas to Europe and to Israel; his Islam is moderate and modern; and he hosts lavish international events like the Eurovision Song Contest in 2012 and the European Games to be held next June. He is also hugely corrupt, and his authoritarian regime has one of the world’s worst records on human rights. Last month, continuing a crackdown on independent media and nongovernmental organizations, police officers raided the offices of the United States-financed Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty in Baku — known locally as Radio Azadliq — taking away computers and documents and sealing the premises. A dozen R.F.E./R.L. employees were detained and questioned. A few weeks earlier, the government jailed a well-known investigative reporter, Khadija Ismayilova, who had worked for the broadcaster and had reported on the lucrative business dealings of Mr. Aliyev’s family. The government first tried to frighten and blackmail her, then hit her with the Orwellian charge that she had pushed a lover toward suicide.

  • Urgent Action
    Further information on UA: 257/14 Index: EUR 55/023/2014 Azerbaijan Date: 15 December 2014 URGENT ACTION JOURNALIST HELD ON POLITICALLY MOTIVATED CHARGE Azerbaijani investigative journalist Khadija Ismayilova was placed under pre-trial detention on 5 December on a politically motivated charge. The authorities also suspended the licence of Khadija Ismayilova’s lawyer on 10 December. Khadija Ismayilova was detained on 5 December and ordered to spend two months in pre-trial detention by the Sabail District court in Baku, the capital. She is charged under Article 125 of the Criminal Code of Azerbaijan (incitement to suicide or to an attempt of suicide). The authorities have accused Khadija Ismayilova of inciting her former colleague and a reported close personal friend to an attempt of suicide. According to the Azerbaijani authorities, Khadija Ismayilova was arrested for “insulting” his “honour and dignity in social networks and among her friends due to breaking off their relations and his intention to marry another woman”. The authorities also claim that Khadija Ismayilova successfully lobbied for his dismissal from a media outlet, where both of them worked as reporters, and a broadcasting organization where he was subsequently employed as a journalist. Both media outlets refuted the claim that Khadija Ismayilova was involved in the dismissal of the person in question. The Azerbaijani authorities have failed to disclose any other evidence that would show that Khadija Ismayilova deliberately intended to incite him to an attempt of suicide. Amnesty International considers that the charge against Khadija Ismayilova is politically motivated and is the latest attempt to silence her journalistic work in a long history of her persecution.

  • 12 Azerbaijan: Going It Alone
    12 Azerbaijan: Going It Alone Svante E. Cornell Over the past two decades, Azerbaijan has been among the countries most reti- cent to engage in integration projects among post-Soviet states. In fact, from the early 1990s onward, Azerbaijan resisted Russian efforts to integrate the country into various institutions. Since then, it has taken a position that can be generally described as being somewhat more accommodating than Georgia’s position toward Moscow, and somewhat more forward than those of Uzbeki- stan and Turkmenistan. In that context, it should come as no surprise that Azerbaijan has rejected offers to join the Customs Union or upcoming Eurasian Union, but it also has maintained a low profile on the matter. Economic Prospects Analysts have pointed to benefits as well as drawbacks that membership in the Customs Union and Eurasian Union would bring to Azerbaijan. These analyses are practically unanimous in noting that the negatives outweigh the positives. Even semi-official Russian analysts have acknowledged this, with one noting that “if Azerbaijan joins the Customs Union, that it is jointly with Turkey and this will not happen soon because of the nature of the Azerbaijani economy.”1 The benefits of Azerbaijan joining the Customs Union would essentially lie in greater access to the Russian market. Given that the Eurasian Union would bring free mobility of labor, it would, in theory, legalize the estimated up to two million Azerbaijani guest laborers in Russia, of which only a fraction have a legal presence—implying that Customs Union membership would remove one potential Russian instrument of pressure.

  • In the Shadow of Revolution: a Decade of Authoritarian Hardening in Azerbaijan*
    In the Shadow of Revolution: A Decade of Authoritarian Hardening in Azerbaijan* Cory Welt George Washington University [email protected] July 2014 WORKING PAPER * For citation as a working paper. 1 Over the last ten years, Azerbaijan’s ranking on the “democracy index” of the U.S.-based nongovernmental organization Freedom House has reflected the country’s slide from a “semi- consolidated” authoritarian regime to a “consolidated” authoritarian one.1 This change in regime type has not come suddenly. It has been the result of a gradual hardening of authoritarian governance since 2003, the year Ilham Aliyev became president. It might be difficult at first to grasp the significance of this shift in classification. Azerbaijan was hardly democratic under President Aliyev’s father, Heydar Aliyev, from 1993 to 2003. During the senior Aliyev’s rule, however, the regime allowed at least some freedom to civil society and media. Since then, the regime has become increasingly authoritarian across all indicators, but the collapse of space for nongovernmental forces to engage freely in the public sphere has been especially pronounced. Azerbaijan’s slide into consolidated authoritarianism has coincided with a decade of regime change from below in Azerbaijan’s two neighborhoods of post-Soviet Eurasia and the Middle East. From the color revolutions of 2003-2005 to the Arab Spring of 2010-2011 and Ukraine’s EuroMaidan of 2013-2014, the Azerbaijani government repeatedly has witnessed the fall of less consolidated authoritarian governments all around it. While it is difficult to determine precisely how much the power of these examples has contributed to Azerbaijan’s authoritarian hardening, a few connections are clear.
