    (Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University Press, 2022) Kinkladze, Rusudan; Metreveli, Shorena; Chitaladze, Ketevan
    The Covid-19 crisis has been a major challenge for almost every state. It completely changed the lives of people - millions of people became ill and hundreds of thousands died. The study of the demographic structure of the population is very relevant, which at the present stage is dictated not only by the peculiarities of the socio-economic development of the country, but also by the demands of economic integration in the world economic space. At the same time, it is very important to identify specific mechanisms of population growth. The demographic factor of the population influences the formation of labor potential, largely determines the development and distribution of the productive forces of the country. The paper discusses the demographic structure of the population, which on the one hand is affected by a number of complex demographic processes, thus, in general, this or that real indicator of the population is obtained, and on the other hand, influences the nature of growth. The paper presents a statistical analysis of the events and processes caused by the COVID-19 pandemic in Georgia, which had an impact on the change of the sex-age structure of the population. It is noted that the COVID-19 pandemic has had a significant impact on demographics although although it is not yet possible to fully assess them, some conclusions can already be drawn

    Ethno-demographic processes and ethnic conflicts in Georgia
    (Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University Press, 2020) Khmaladze, Merab; Chitaladze, Ketevan
    In the 1990s, the ethnic conflicts incited by Russia were directed against the secession and formation of Georgia from the Soviet Empire as an independent state. The negative consequences of these ethnic conflicts still have a negative impact on Georgia. The purpose of writing this paper was to investigate whether the ongoing ethno-demographic processes in Georgia were one of the causes of the conflict. For this purpose, based on the historical and modern statistical information related to the problem, we have established that the ongoing ethno-demographic processes in Georgia from the 19th to the 1990s cannot be the cause of ethno-conflicts. Historically, the population of Abkhazian and Ossetian nationalities lived in a better demographic situation than Georgians. According to the latest statistics of 1959-1979 years, Georgians were characterized by low birth rates and high mortality rates compared to Abkhazians and Ossetians, which led to a high natural increase in them compared to Georgians. Due to the demographic situation, Georgians had more conflict situation. It is clear that neither Abkhazians nor Ossetians had limited their demographic development. Consequently, ethno-demographic processes could not be the cause of ethnic conflicts. These conflicts were not ethno-conflicts. This was Russia’s aggression against Georgia’s state independence. After the 2008 military conflict between Russia and Georgia, Russia openly occupied Abkhazia and the Tskhinvali region, which is still under the control of Russia.

The mean expenses of one foreign student is up to 7,733 USD (University fee, everyday expenses, travel expenses and so on), with the total number of students spending up to 195 million GEL a year (1 USD – 2.7 GEL), which is 0.6% of Georgia’s GDP, and 6% of service export. The number of students in 2020 is estimated to be up to 20 thousand and the income is estimated to grow up to 0.5 million GEL.

    Agriculture is a form of the country's strategic activity: the Georgians themselves are an ancient agricultural people, although today's agriculture in Georgia cannot be considered a successful industry. By 2020, it accounts for 7.3% of Sakrtvelo's gross domestic product and 19.8% of employees. Accordingly, the issue of self-sufficiency in agricultural products of the country is acute. For this, the dynamics of horticulture and livestock production in Soviet and post-Soviet Georgia, the issue of import dependence of agriculture, the country's self-sufficiency ratios by types of main agricultural products are analyzed.
