Der Artikel beschäftigt sich mit der Übergangsperiode in Georgien und versucht exemplarisch zu erläutern, wie es Teilen der alten Elite, die über "ausreichendes Vertrauen bei der Masse und den starken Organisationen im Land" verfügte, gelungen ist, den Transformationsprozess trotz aller Rückschläge zu gestalten. Analysiert werden in diesem Zusammenhang auch die Instrumente, derer sich die politisch Handelnden bedienten, um den Regimewechsel unumkehrbar zu machen. (Orient/DÜI)

The membership of the Russian Federation in the UN began with a drum beat. Under quite memorable circumstances -- ignoring the regulations of the charter -- Russia took possession of the dying USSR's seats in all of the UN organs within just a few hours in December 1991. The Russian administration followed that up with the political baseline of Gorbachev & Shevardnadze, & attempted to slip into the former Soviet Union's role as a superpower. In the concepts submitted under Russian guidance, the creation of a multipolar world order was untiringly demanded, & the core concern of security policy was that the UN should, as said exactly: form a security council to re-create a power monopoly whose effectiveness could be used to strengthen Moscow. Thus, Russia's UN activities in New York were clearly fixed on the area of security policy, while other fields of interest to the UN, such as peacekeeping, development & human rights, took a backseat.
