Georgia A Country Study is a comprehensive guide to the history, culture, politics, and economy of the country of Georgia. Written by Glenn E. Curtis, a specialist in Eastern European and Eurasian affairs, this book provides a detailed analysis of Georgia's geography, demographics, and society, as well as its political and economic systems.The book begins with an overview of Georgia's history, from ancient times to the present day, including the country's struggles for independence and its relations with neighboring states. It then delves into the country's geography, climate, and natural resources, providing a detailed picture of the physical and environmental factors that shape life in Georgia.The next section of the book focuses on Georgia's society and culture, including its ethnic and linguistic diversity, its religious traditions, and its arts and literature. The book also explores the role of women in Georgian society and the challenges they face.The final sections of the book examine Georgia's political and economic systems, including its government structure, political parties, and foreign relations. The book provides an in-depth analysis of Georgia's transition from a Soviet-style command economy to a market-oriented system, as well as the challenges the country faces in terms of corruption, poverty, and inequality.Overall, Georgia A Country Study is an essential resource for anyone interested in understanding the complex history, culture, and politics of this fascinating country.In the early 1990s, the Caucasus took its place among the regions of the world having violent post-Cold War ethnic conflict. Several wars broke out in the region once Soviet authority ceased holding the lid on disagreements that had been fermenting for decades. (Joseph V. Stalin's forcible relocation of ethnic groups after the redrawing of the region's political map was a chief source of the friction of the 1990s.) Thus, the three republics devoted critical resources to military campaigns in a period when the need for internal restructuring was paramount.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
