The South Caucasus is the key strategic region between the Black Sea and Caspian Sea and the regional powers of Iran, Turkey and Russia and is the land bridge between Asia and Europe with vital hydrocarbon routes to international markets. This volume examines the resulting geopolitical positioning of Georgia, a pivotal state and lynchpin of the region, illustrating how and why Georgia's foreign policy is 'multi-vectored', facing potential challenges from Russia, internal and external nationalisms, the possible break-up of the European project and EU support and uncertainty over the US commitment to the traditional liberal international order.

"Drawing on extensive research in Georgian archives and Georgian-language sources, this book argues that the postwar and post-Stalin era was decisive in the creation of a 'Georgian' Georgia due to not only the role played by the Stalin cult in the construction of Georgian nationhood but also the changes that de-Stalinization wrought among Georgia's populace and in the relationship between Moscow and Tbilisi"--

La Conversion du Kartli est le plus ancien écrit d’historiographie géorgienne. Il a été rédigé en trois étapes. Vers 484, le diacre Grigol retrace l’ascèse et la prédication de sainte Nino, apôtre de la Géorgie. Au début du VIIe siècle, la création de cette nouvelle chrétienté s’insère dans les plans de la Providence et de l’histoire universelle: Alexandre fonde le royaume, Constantin le christianise et Héraclius le libère de l’influence zoroastrienne. À la fin du IXe siècle, quand les Géorgiens s’émancipent du califat, le texte s’enrichit de vignettes hagiographiques, soulignant le cas singulier de Nino, femme et apôtre, captive étrangère, recluse dans un buisson de ronces, qui devient conseillère du roi et de sa cour. Les deux manuscrits découverts en 1991, à Sainte-Catherine du Sinaï, dans un tombeau de livres saints, renouvellent la lecture de cette vénérable chronique rescapée de l’usure des siècles.

This book investigates the constitutive capacity of Soviet nationhood and empire. The Soviet republic of Georgia, located in the mountainous Caucasus region, received the same nation-building template as other national republics of the USSR. Yet Stalin's Georgian heritage, intimate knowledge of Caucasian affairs, and personal involvement in local matters as he ascended to prominence left his homeland to confront a distinct set of challenges after his death in 1953. This book argues that the postwar and post-Stalin era was decisive in the creation of a "Georgian" Georgia.
