ГРАЖДАНСКОЕ ОБЩЕСТВО МОЛДОВЫ И ГРУЗИИ: СРАВНИТЕЛЬНЫЙ АНАЛИЗ

Abstract

The article is devoted to the comparative analysis of civil society of the two post-Soviet countries - Moldova and Georgia, identifying similarities and differences in the process of its functioning and development. The article gives a brief description of the civil society of the two states and the legal framework regulating the activities of civil society and its relationship with the state. The authors identified three comparison parameters: situation in the field of human rights; solution of "frozen" conflicts; interaction of civil society and the state. Comparative analysis allowed to identify common and distinctive features that characterize the civil society of Moldova and Georgia. Both countries are characterized by common problems: situation remains difficult in the field of human rights; in both countries frozen conflicts remain unsettled; the state does not always listen to the views of civil society. At the same time, each country has its own particularity. The authors conclude that in the present both Moldova and Georgia are in need of a strong and competent civil society, which should contribute to the implementation of reforms that will promote both countries towards European integration.
