Georgia as an Ethnic Democracy: a Study on the Azerbaijani and Armenian Minorities under Mikheil Saakashvili
Publisher: Salvatore Freni Volume: 44 pages, pdf Description: This dissertation argues that the relationship between the core Georgian majority and the Armenian and Azerbaijani minorities can be conceptualized through Sammy Smooha’s model of ethnic democracy. Scholars have largely ignored instances where a state has not established a power‐sharing agreement with the minority, yet conflict has not occurred.
