Long-term changes of atmospheric parameters may be related to the sun’s current solar activity cycle\, the current of galactic cosmic rays and atmospheric changes caused by human activities. It has been demonstrated that the global warming trend in the lower atmosphere of the earth is followed by global decrease in temperature (“global cooling”) in the upper atmospheric layers. The occurrence of this phenomenon has its own regional features\, which are also characteristic of the region of Caucasus. The trends of long-term changes of atmospheric and ionosphere parameters detected from the Abastumani observatory\, as well as their possible connections to cosmic and human factors will be demonstrated. \nTime: October 12\, 18:00 \nLocation: room E207\, Cholokashvili AVE #3/5\, ISU \nAll are welcome to attend the meeting. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/isu-science-cafe-inviting-to-attend-goderdzi-didebulidze-s-public-lecture-climate-and-space/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/37943.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20161012T160000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20161012T160000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20161010T111328Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T093906Z UID:10002706-1476288000-1476288000@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:MOBILITY PROGRAMS IN SWEDEN WITHIN ERASMUS+ EXCHANGE PROGRAMS DESCRIPTION:On October 12\, at 16:00\, at room A101 of Ilia State University (ISU)\, a representative of Uppsala University (Sweden)\, together with the employees of the Foreign Relations Department of Iliauni\, will conduct an informational meeting on the international mobility programs funded within the Erasmus+ exchange program. \nAt the meeting\, they will elaborate upon the opportunities of mobility at Uppsala University\, as well as other European universities. \nThe event will be attended by the representative of Lund University in Sweden\, who will hold a presentation on the opportunities to attend Lund University (doesn’t involve mobility programmes within the Erasmus+ exchange program). \nTime: October 12\, 16:00 \nVenue: room A101\, Ilia Chavchavadze Ave. # 32\, ISU \nAll are welcomed to attend the event. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/mobility-programs-in-sweden-within-erasmus-exchange-programs/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/38133.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20161011T190000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20161011T190000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20161010T123952Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T093910Z UID:10002708-1476212400-1476212400@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:PUBLIC LECTURE DELIVERED BY KHATIA KIKALISHVILI DESCRIPTION:On October 11\, 19:00\, a public lecture will be conducted on the topic The Role of Bundestag in Determining German Foreign Policy and European Policy\, at room A101 of Ilia State University (ISU). \nThe lecture will be delivered by Khatia Kikalishvili\, Doctor of Law and assistant of Dr. Thomas Feist\, Deputy of Bundestag in the issues of foreign policy. \nMajor aspects of Bundestag’s foreign policy and its implementation\, as well as the role of Bundestag in determining German Foreign Policy and European policy and the role of Bundestag’s factions\, committees and different working groups in this process will also be discussed. \nTime: October 11\, 19:00 \nVenue: room A101\, Ilia Chavchavadze ave. # 32\, ISU \nAll are welcomed to attend the event. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/public-lecture-delivered-by-khatia-kikalishvili/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/38136.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20161011T183000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20161011T183000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20161007T091029Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T093914Z UID:10002710-1476210600-1476210600@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:PUBLIC LECTURE DELIVERED BY CLAUDIA BAEZ-CAMAGO ON INFORMAL GOVERNANCE AND CORRUPTION: COMPERATIVE INSIGHTS FROM SEVEN CASES DESCRIPTION:On October 11\, at 18:30\, at Book house “Ligamus” of Ilia State University (ISU)\, researcher of The University of Basel\, Dr. Claudia Baez-Camargo will deliver a public lecture on the topic of “Informal Governance and Corruption: Comparative Insights from Seven Cases. \nThe lecture will be delivered within the framework of the cycle of lectures which is supported by the programme “Academic Swiss Caucasus Network.” \nRegarding the Speaker: \nDr. Claudia Baez-Camargo is a senior researcher at The Basel Institute on Public Governance.  He holds a Ph.D from The University of Notre Dame (USA) and the Master’s degree from the University of Cambridge (Great Britain).

Due to its strategic location as a meeting point of various ethnic groups and an intersection of cultures\, the Tao-Klarjeti region has consistently and throughout the centuries attracted interest of various larger powers and regional actors.  \nTao-Klarjeti is rich in historic political\, administrative\, episcopal and monastic centers\, replete with churches\, late antique and medieval fortifications\, monumental paintings and reliefs\, manuscript heritage and gold artifacts. \nInternational and local political\, social\, economic\, demographic and ethno-confessional processes have left a long-lasting impact on the daily life of the peoples of Tao-Klarjeti and have been engrained in religious practices\, place names\, languages and dialects. \nEarly state formations on the territory of Tao-Klarjeti\, as well as new political and religious centers that appeared throughout the middle ages\, have played a crucial role in the formation of Georgian culture and eventually\, statehood. \nUnfortunately\, for a long time travel to the region was restricted and possibilities for scholarly research were scarce. Nowadays Tao-Klarjeti is visited by an increasing number of scholars\, along with a constantly growing flow of tourists. \nThe gradual exposure of the region to a wider public has generated a strong scholarly and public interest in the Tao-Klarjeti region. The first Interdisciplinary International conference dedicated to the region was held in 2010 and has since then become a regular event.  \nWorking Sections\nHistory / Archival study / Source study\nArt history\nPhilology / Linguistics\nEthnology/Archaeology\nRestoration/Conservation\nTourism and management of cultural heritage/Geography \nWorking Languages\n• Georgian\n• English\n• Turkish\n \nAbstract\nDeadline: 30 May\nMaximum number of symbols: 2.000-4.000\nSelected speakers will be notified before or by 30 June\n \nPaper\nDeadline: 30 July\nMaximum number of symbols: 13.000\n \nAdditional notes\n• The paper must not be previously published\, nor presented at any other conference \n• The abstract must clearly indicate the results of the study\n \nThe conference will be held on 21-24 September\, 2016\, at Ilia State University. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/4th-international-conference-tao-klarjeti/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/02/36446.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160716T140000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160716T140000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20160706T083854Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T093923Z UID:10002733-1468677600-1468677600@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:Iliauni celebrates 10-year anniversary on Lisi Lake DESCRIPTION:Iliauni celebrates its 10th anniversary.

Within the framework of the conference\, the collection of articles in one book with the same title will be presented. The book published through joint efforts of Ilia State University and Konrad Adenauer Foundation comprises the articles of the professors of Ilia State University\, Tbilisi State University\, University of Oxford\, Free University of Berlin and Uppsala University. The authors will introduce the audience to key discoveries of their works while delivering a speech. \nApproximately a quarter-century ago\, Georgia announced its independence\, and embarked upon the difficult task of building a state. The beginning was unfavorable\, however – against the backdrop of civil wars\, destruction of political and economic systems\, the vast majority of Georgians did not believe Georgia would prove to be a viable country. However\, today\, after 25 years from gaining its independence\, Georgia has still to negotiate numerous challenges. Although fortunately\, overall\, it can be said that the country’s strenuous efforts have yielded positive consequences\, since today Georgia can be defined as a self-made state with well-functioning institutions\, active civil society\, growing economy and strong ties with different international powerhouses\, including the EU and NATO. \nThe aforementioned edition on 25 Years of Georgia’s Independence refers to those challenges Georgia had to cope with in the very beginning\, as well as its path to today’s Georgia. \nIt is interesting to know how progress was made and what is still left to be done. The authors of 6 chapters of the book will discuss and elaborate on how Georgia succeeded in building a state and democratizing it\, as well as developing a civil society\, advancing economy\, and settling into the new international system. \nDespite the book being based on academic research\, it is pleasant to read for any interested person. \nSee the programme of the conference in the file attached below. \nVenue:  Ilia State University\, Kakutsa Cholokashvili Ave 3/5\, E207 \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/conference-on-25-years-of-georgia-s-independence-achievements-and-unfinished-projects-and-presentation-of-collection-of-articles/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/06/37006.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160602T130000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160602T130000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20160520T091130Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T093935Z UID:10002789-1464872400-1464872400@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:AMBASSADOR OF SWITZERLAND TO GEORGIA TO DELIVER PUBLIC LECTURE WITHIN EUROPEAN DAYS IN GEORGIA DESCRIPTION:On June 2\, at 13:00\, within the European days in Georgia\, Ambassador of Switzerland to Georgia\, Lukas Beglinger will pay a visit to Ilia State University to deliver a public lecture.\n\nTopic: Switzerland’s System of Direct Democracy\n\nLanguage: English\n\nDate and Time: June 2\, 13:00\n\nLocation: Book House “Ligamus”\, Ilia State University\, Ilia Chavchavadze Avenue #32\n\nAll welcome to attend the event.\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/ambassador-of-switzerland-to-georgia-to-deliver-public-lecture-within-european-days-in-georgia-2/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/36624.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160601T090000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160601T090000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20160527T130214Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T093940Z UID:10002795-1464771600-1464771600@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:Memory and Identity in Post-Soviet Space: Georgia and the Caucasus in a Broader Eastern European Context DESCRIPTION:The Caucasus can be described as the meeting point\, crossroads or borderland of different cultures and civilizations. The very fact that various nations\, ethnic groups\, religions and cultures coexist in this region presuppose the essence of different and even sharply divided and contested mnemonic communities\, since collective memory is the crucial marker of ethnic or cultural identities. While many ongoing political problems are the results of memory politics\, the investigation of memory issues in Georgia and in the Caucasus is still rare and is in initial stage. \nThe conference\, which will be held at Ilia State University on June 1-3\, 2016\, aims to reflect on key aspects of memory\, identity and politics in Georgia\, Caucasus and post-socialist space and intends to coordinate regional and international cooperation of scholars working on this complex and broad academic field. The conference participants consist of scholars from USA\, Poland\, Azerbaijan\, Armenia\, and Georgia. \nThe conference could apply to a wide range of problems\, which will promote to reveal at the same time unique and universal features of memory related phenomena and processes in modern Georgia\, the Caucasus\, Central and East Europe. In particular\, topics to elaborate include but are not limited to: \n\nPolitics of memory in historical perspectives: historical forms of memory policy in Georgia and the Caucasus.\nSoviet and post-Soviet memory politics in the framework of totalitarianism and imperial legacies.\nSites and realms of memory in Georgia and the Caucasus.\nCollective memory and collective amnesia: collective amnesia as the act of forgetting and a way toward reaching social cohesion?\nMemory in peace building and reconciliation process.\n\n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/memory-and-identity-in-post-soviet-space-georgia-and-the-caucasus-in-a-broader-eastern-european-context/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/36750.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160531T110000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160531T110000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20160512T165159Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T094032Z UID:10002805-1464692400-1464692400@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:AMBASSADOR OF GERMANY DELIVERS PUBLIC LECTURE WITHIN EUROPEAN DAYS IN GEORGIA DESCRIPTION:On May 31\, at 11:00\, within the European Days in Georgia\, at Book House Ligamus of Ilia State University\, Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Germany to Georgia\, Bettina Cadenbach\, will deliver a public lecture. \nTopic: Foreign Policy of Germany\nLanguage: English\nDate and Time: 31 May\, 11:00\nLocation: Book House “Ligamus”\, Ilia State University\, Ilia Chavchavadze Avenue #32 \nAll welcome to attend the event \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/ambassador-of-germany-delivers-public-lecture-within-european-days-in-georgia/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/36451.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160527T190000 DTEND;TZID=Asia/Dubai:20160527T190000 DTSTAMP:20260425T203403 CREATED:20160524T075952Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240202T094034Z UID:10002810-1464375600-1464375600@events.iliauni.edu.ge SUMMARY:WINNER OF ILIAUNI LITERARY COMPETITION TO BE ANNOUNCED DESCRIPTION:On May 27\, at 19:00\, at Ilia State University Book House Ligamus\, the winner of Iliauni Literary Competition – the author of the best Georgian novel published in 2014-2015 will be announced.

Later\, “The History of Sexuality” passed criticism upon Freud’s entire psychoanalytical theory.  In parallel to this\, Žak Lakan’s interventions shed light on new kinds of tensions in Foucault’s and Freud’s debates. Is it possible to hold a dialogue between Foucault’s genealogical and psychoanalytical methods? What kinds of political consequences can these debates yield? How can Foucault’s intervention be comprehended in the light of psychoanalysis? The lecture will try to expand on these questions and critically comprehend them. \nTime: May 6\, 19:00.\nVenue: room A101\, Ilia State University\, Ilia Chavchavadze Avenue #32 \nAll welcome to attend the event. \n\n \n \n \n \n \n \n \n\n[wpai_display_imported_files_here] URL:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/event/ioseb-chauchidze-holds-public-lecture-against-repressive-hypothesis-foucault-and-psychoanalysis/ CATEGORIES:Events ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://events.iliauni.edu.ge/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/36404.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
