Dr. Lia Tsuladze, Executive Director of the Center for Social Sciences and Associate Professor of Sociology at Tbilisi State University, published an article in Current History, titled “Georgia’s Contested European Trajectory”, in October. In the piece, she writes that “The blaming and shaming discourse of Georgia’s ruling party targets not only its local opponents—both the political opposition and civil society—but also its external critics … who have been vocal about the country’s democratic backsliding and deviation from the European course.” The article can be accessed by clicking here.
