The Colby Reader This past summer I had the opportunity to travel through Georgia and Armenia, both former republics of the Soviet Union. What I learned there, was not how to buy the best Vodka in all of Eastern Europe or the finest caviar available. While buying vodka, however, I discovered that not all countries react the same way, when the shackles of communism are torn off. While both Georgia and Armenia have made great strides economically, socially and politically since the fall of communism, they still face tremendous hurdles. For over seventy years, the USSR’s goal was to wipe away any nationalistic sentiment among the populace of their various republics and replace it with a pseudo-form of allegiance, that proclaimed good in all things Russian. The interests of the state were held above all else. Towering monuments made by the Soviets, that include two-hundred-foot tall metal statues of Stalin and Lenin, are constant reminders of the legacy left behind in the wake of the fall of communism in Asia and Eastern Europe. Unfortunately, as I plodded through the streets of Tbilisi and Yerevan, the countries’ respective capitals, I realized that there are more important remnants of Soviet-style communism that have been left behind, other than ugly stone statues of dead soviet leaders. The most important legacy of communism can be found in the lack of modern technology such as computers and the existence of an underground economy which has mimicked, but failed to create a true capitalist and free economy. If these countries cannot effectively combat corruption, then foreign investment will dwindle and they will be left out of the information technology revolution and globalization will be something that they will read about in the newspapers—but never take part in.

Aquaculture Development Trends in the Countries of the Former USSR Area Laszlo Varadi , Sergey Blokhin , Ferenc Pekar Istvan Szucs and Imre Csavas Fish Culture Research Institute, P.O. Box 47 H-5541 Szarvas, Hungary ABSTRACT: KEY WORDS: Former USSR, Aquaculture, Fish Farming, Development, Aquatic Production. Introduction It is within this context of dramatic social and economic change within a large region, that the development and contribution of aquaculture in the countries of the former USSR area is made. Analysis of production, demand and consumption trends Statistical data indicate a significant and unfortunate decrease in fish consumption in the countries of the former USSR area during recent years. Annual fish consumption was at its highest level, 30 kg/caput, in the mid-1980s, but has shown a gradual decrease since that time. Average fish consumption was 33 percent lower during the period 1991-1995 than for 1986-1990, compared to a reduction of 8 percent for meat. Recent information indicates that the negative trend has halted and even been reversed, resulting in an increase (FAO, 2000a).

5. ANALYSIS: The Government-criminal Alliance (01/13/02) Members of parliament in georgia have demanded the resignation of the internal affairs Canthe criminal/government alliance in the former ussr be defeated? http://www.ukrweekly.com/Archive/2002/020206.shtml

ANALYSIS The government-criminal alliance by Roman Kupchinsky RFE/RL Crime, Corruption and Terrorism Watch The fight against organized crime is inseparably linked to the question of high-level government corruption. When a corrupt government forms an alliance with organized crime, domestic law-enforcement agencies become cops on the beat - chasing down muggers and pickpockets - while aiding, and benefiting from, major criminal activity. Only when the government/criminal alliance is destroyed can the rule of law return. In the former USSR such a situation exists today. The examples are numerous and brazen. The head of the department in charge of battling corruption at the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs (MVD) recently fled abroad, fearing arrest for selling protection to criminal groups. The head of Ukraine's Internal Affairs Ministry was fired by the president, and both are suspected of complicity in the murder of a journalist. Members of parliament in Georgia have demanded the resignation of the internal affairs minister and the procurator general for corruption. A Korean businessman recently confessed to having given the president of Kazakstan a bribe of $10 million. Can the criminal/government alliance in the former USSR be defeated? If so, by whom?

In contemporary Russia the most important are the cases of discrimination, resulting from action or inaction of public authorities, their organs or officials. Racial discrimination in private sector, particularly, in the sphere of housing and employment is not perceived either by public opinion or by academic experts as a significant problem, and actually remains unanalysed. 2) The role of the federative system. The federative structure of the Russian Federation is a source of a number of problems relating to human rights and observance of the law. Organs of the state power of the constituent units (subjects of the federation) systematically violate the Constitution, federal laws and international obligations of the country; regional authorities create most of the problems, relating to racial discrimination. The federal state power bodies in practice have limited opportunities of influencing the subjects of the federation, and even these opportunities actually are not been used. Regional branches of the federal governmental agencies become subordinate to the regional governments, and the federal authorities do not undertake all necessary measures to make these branches observe the federal legislation. In many cases the federal organs of state power not only neglect violations of the law by the regional authorities, but demonstrate solidarity with such actions as well.

Independent for three years (1918-1921) following the Russian revolution, it was forcibly incorporated into the USSR until the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991. Ethnic separation in Abkhazia and South Ossetia, poor governance, and Russian military bases deny the government effective control over the entirety of the state's internationally recognized territory.

"Dear delegates and Guests of the Congress: Helen Blau Perhaps I could begin by saying that at this significant international event, our delegation represents the People’s Patriotic Union (PPU) of Georgia, which was established in September of 1998 on the initiative of the United Communist Party of Georgia (UCPG). Its chairman is a retired Major-General Panteleimon I. Georgadze. Its vice-chairman is Avtandil G. Maruashvili.

Number 90, November 1996 The CIS and the Caucasus by Edward Marks Conclusions Russia initially viewed the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) as an artificial organization. But, since 1993, elements of the Russian government have tried to use the CIS as a vehicle for the voluntary reintegration of the former Soviet republics. Moscow is promoting the CIS as a regional peacekeeping organization, seeking recognition as a UN Chapter VIII Regional Organization, similar to the Organization of American States. International acceptance of the CIS as a regional organization has been hampered by Russia's dominance of the organization. The CIS is seen as a cover for Moscow's imperial intentions. International recognition of the CIS is also hampered by the fact that most of its member states are still struggling to establish their sovereignty. Until more CIS member states are viable, the international character of the organization will be questioned. The states of the Caucasus region have different views regarding membership in a regional organization. Armenia and Georgia are favorably disposed, in prinicple, towards membership, but they have discrete reservations about their relationship with the CIS. Azerbaijan, on the other hand, anticipates its oil riches will allow it to return to its former golden days and has reservations about joining any regional organization. All the states of the Caucasus are suspicious of Moscow's intentions towards the region. Commonwealth or Empire
