Abstract:
History of study of revolt 1924 and generally, of Democratic Republic of
Georgia 1918-1921 can be divided into two stages: historiography of the Soviet
and Post-Soviet periods. Emigrants’ literature related to history of the period,
which became available in Georgia only after collapse of the Soviet Union,
should be specially noted.
The paper is focused on both periods of research related to the revolt
1924. Works of the Soviet period are far away from being called researches.
Political assessments prevail. There are also some problems for Post-Soviet
historiography, sometimes restricting itself only by re-assessment of former
opinions. Thorough researches are to be carried on using all categories of the
sources.
