The conference was attended by analysts, historians and journalists from Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. The conference was supported by the Office of the Embassy of Switzerland in Armenia. ________________________________________ European Debates were held at the House of Europe in Tbilisi (Georgia) on
15-16 May 2010. Distinguished foreign analysts, experts and observers
assembled to discuss the current situation in the South Caucasus and its
relation with other countries. ________________________________________ On 29 April – 1 May 2010, the Analytical Centre on Globalisation and
Regional Cooperation organised a Working meeting of civil activists and
historians of the South Caucasian countries in Tbilisi (Georgia). The aims
of the meeting were: to organise discussions about the dilemmas in teaching
and interpreting history of the South Caucasus in Armenia, Azerbaijan and
Georgia, to emphasise our peoples’ positive experience in cohabitation by
means of cooperation between Armenian, Azeri, and Georgian historians, and
to represent the articles which have been written for inclusion in the book
History and Identity: the South Caucasus and Other Regions in Transition. ________________________________________ The current discussion in Russia about the necessity of political,
economical and social modernisation raises the question of the country’s
ability to innovate and to compete on a global level. Centrally important to
the debate’s success will be whether the state demands a monopolising role
in the debate or whether it can be conducted with the active participation
of the various powers in society. It can only be in the interests of Europe
as a whole that the modernisation partnership which the EU has offered
Russia is conducted on both sides by a well-informed and critical public.
Essential prerequisites for this are strengthening Russian civil society and
creating a framework for discussions that aim for a Europe-wide development
which is both long-lasting and democratic. |
