  abstract  = {Die Beitr{\"a}ge des vorliegenden Sammelbandes widmen sich vorrangig den finanz- und sozialrechtlichen Problemen von Georgien im Transformationsprozess, bieten wichtige Informationen zur aktuellen Situation von Haushalten und zum Steueraufkommen, zu Fragen der Armut und der Einkommensverteilung, zur rechtlichen Fundierung der Finanz- und Sozialpolitik sowie zur Ausgestaltung der gebietsk{\"o}rperschaftlichen Struktur. Die Autoren vermitteln weitgehende Vorschl{\"a}ge zur Reform des Steuer- und Transfersystems sowie zum Aufbau eines friedensstiftenden F{\"o}deralstaats, welcher die Kenntnisse {\"u}ber die Wertgrundlagen einer offenen Gesellschaft vertieft, damit den zivilgesellschaftlichen Ansatz unterst{\"u}tzt, eine St{\"a}rkung des demokratischen Marktsystems f{\"o}rdert und zugleich das friedliche Zusammenleben in einer unruhigen Region erleichtert.},

  abstract  = {This article looks at contemporary Armenia, Georgia, and Azerbaijan and addresses the question of how these states, which suffer from considerable institutional weaknesses, nevertheless retain the ability to control key aspects of statehood, first of all security and a measure of central authority. It is argued that these states invest only in selected aspects of statehood. The needed resources are mobilized by a system of informal taxes, which are then invested in certain selected core functions of statehood. This form of state depends on both formal and informal institutions, which are mutually supportive.},

  abstract  = {During the violent phases of transformation in post-Soviet Georgia the power of the police passed on to paramilitary groups. Under the rule of president Shevardnadze, however, the police regained a central political role, but it remained embedded in Soviet and pre-Soviet political structures. This becomes visible by looking at the political economy of the police. Informal taxes, purchase of office, and clientelism became established practices within the police. At present, the new government tries to carry out structural reforms in the police sector, which might lead to a break with the current hybrid Georgian state model.},
