LEGAL REGULATION OF CRISIS MANAGEMENT AND PROBLEMATIC ISSUES OF HUMAN RIGHTS DURING COVID 19

Wed, 06 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0400

The research was carried out within the framework of the research that the Georgian International University funded and this research was about problems of human health and human rights during covid 19 and international guarantees. The research is complex and examines the above-mentioned problems from several angles, namely: in the context of crisis management during a pandemic, in the context of human rights, etc. Also, we fully analyzed legislative changes that were made during a pandemic and their impact on human rights. The pandemic created an extraordinary situation and the need to make quick decisions made it difficult to strike fair and balanced conditions between human rights and health care interests. To establish a fair balance, together with the democratic development of the country, the stability and competence of the institutions were also decisive.
The pandemic has forced European countries to implement additional measures. Most of them have not declared a state of emergency and they faced the pandemic with ordinary regulations. The reason for declaring a state of emergency in Georgia was not COVID-19, the main reason was the lack of appropriate legal regulations. The right to protection of personal data, among many other rights, has been put at risk during the Covid-19 pandemic. A particularly large amount of personal data related to health status was being processed. Personal data was processed not only by state institutions but also by private companies (for example, during thermal screening). The work and teaching process moved to the online mode, which has led to the processing of a particularly large amount of personal data. To prevent the spread of the disease, several online applications have been created and the geolocation data of millions of people has been processed. Within the framework of the research, the analysis will be made on the legal basis of the restrictions introduced by the state in the conditions of the pandemic, which will help in the future to establish the response mechanisms of the states to solve similar emergencies in such a way as to exclude confusion, chaos and inconsistent actions in crisis conditions. Violence against women has become a special challenge. The criminal justice statistics in the country already revealed a not-so-favorable situation in this regard, although the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic practically had its impact here as well, which is one of the subjects of our research.

Shizhou Wang — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0400

After the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China was promulgated in 1979 and revised in 1997, this Law was revised and supplemented by one separate supplementary decision, 11 Criminal Amendments and 14 Criminal Legislative Interpretations. In terms of content, the Criminal Amendments and Criminal Legislative Interpretations introduced in this article after 2010 reflect the new development of Criminal Law in China. This article explains the main forms and features of these new development. It outlines the legislative measures to abolish the death penalty and to implement the criminal policy of "combining leniency and strictness". It explains the new measures in the protection of national security and national dignity and in the fighting against terrorism and corruption. A summary is given to the new provisions in terms of protecting information network, citizens’ personal information, social integrity and public order, environment, financial order, intellectual property rights, minors, traffic safety, the safety of food and drugs. In addition, the issues heatedly debated in theoretical and practical fields are introduced on the age of criminal responsibility for minors, the trend of Chinese criminal legislation, the establishment of criminal law provisions (criminal constitution), and the implementation of criminal law. The author hopes that this article shall benefit the legal exchanges and mutual understanding between the people of Georgia and the People’s Republic of China.

IDEOLOGICAL-LEGAL NATURE OF THE CONSTITUTIONAL AGREEMENT (CONCORDAT)

Givi Lobzhanidze, Zoia Adamia — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0400

Concordat is an international agreemnet made between two states, one of them is Vatican - the holly place leadered by the pope of Rome and the second one is – the state authorities managing the relations with the catholic church. Also its conception and target is to define interests with persons, institutions and the church property.
The concordat deals with the foreign and domestic matters which is the field of interests between the both parties.
The concordat with its contemporary meaning is the same as the constitutional agreemnet meaning the relations between the christian church and the state.
Based on the Georgian Constitution we have the freedom of belief meaning that this conception contains both the Georgia’s citizens and generally the persons interests belonging to any religious community.
The agreement between the state and church made caused some misunderstanding. Some people clamed that it was a discriminative action towards the other religious groups and their belief, that of course, was not right.
Based on the Georgian Constitution, we come across the freedom of religious belief including Georgians and representatives of the other nations.
Our country has always been tolerant towards the other nations from the historical period, sience the very ancient times, for example, David Agmashenebeli period up to nowadays.

Mariam Darbaidze, Zurab Mushkudiani, Inga Gelashvili, Khatuna Tabagari — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0400

According to the Law of Georgia on Higher Education, after graduating from the university, the student should be able to establish a worthy place in society and develop his abilities with the acquired knowledge and skills. This means obtaining such systematic knowledge, which is characterized by the ability of constant growth and renewal.
The article aims to study project-based teaching, as an effective approach to student-centred teaching and its role in achieving the goals of higher education, to reveal the extent to which lecturers in higher education institutions use modern teaching methods, their effectiveness, challenges and ways to solve them.
The following research methods are used in this article: a question-and-answer survey conducted in higher education institutions and quantitative and qualitative research methods.
The research results showed that the mentioned educational goal is still unachievable for higher education institutions. Observation of the educational process made it clear that the lecturers are either completely unable or partially able to use modern teaching methods. At the same time, they fail to ensure the promotion of a student-centred learning process. There can be several reasons for this problem, but one of them is the selection and use of wrong teaching methods.

McQUAIL'S PROPAGANDA TACTICS AND METHODS IN MASS COMMUNICATION

Davit Dolidze — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0400

Propaganda is a form of communication that aims to influence public attitudes toward a cause or position by presenting only one side of an argument. It involves the deliberate sharing of facts, insights and philosophies aimed at changing behavior and stimulating people to action. It is a form of persuasion in which there is an intentional, controlled transmission of one-sided information to the public through mass media. Therefore, mass media and propaganda are inseparable.
Propaganda is usually created by governments, but some forms of mass communication created by other powerful organizations can also be considered propaganda. In contrast to the unbiased delivery of information, propaganda, in its basic sense, is altered information primarily to influence an audience.
Mass media, as a system of dissemination and transmission of information to society, plays a major role in entertaining and informing people with the rules and values that correspond to their social structure.
Propaganda creates conflicts between different classes of society. In today's media-saturated society, the mass media is the main platform and outlet for propagandistic acts aimed at establishing the agenda introduced by the rulers.
Throughout the world, propaganda continues to flourish as one of the best means of managing citizens, and this practice is unlikely to cease in the future. Nowadays, any modern media platform can be used to deliver propaganda to its target audience, such as radio, television, press, movies, music, posters, etc.
Since there is a problem of manipulation of public opinion and dissemination of any type of propaganda in the media space of almost all countries of the world, I decided to choose the mentioned issue as the subject of research.

The new management method -,,Mission Command‘‘ has been actively introduced since 2016- 2017 in the Defense Force of Georgia. The introduction of this method was result of the complex and unpredictable nature of the military conflicts/wars, that occurred in the recent history of Georgia and so in the world.

THE MAIN STAGES OF TEACHING FOREIGN LANGUAGES IN CHINA

Leila Berishvili, Zurab Mushkudiani, Marina Ostrianska — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0400

Despite the long history of Chinese civilization, schools established by English-speaking missionaries are considered to be the origin of formal English language instruction in China, and we must agree with this approach. As a result of the Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895), government officials increasingly began to realize that learning from Western societies and sharing their experience, close
contacts with them was the only way to develop and even to combat foreign aggression. English-language education was thus encouraged to meet the demand. In 1903, English was included in the national high school curriculum. There were periods in the nation's history when teaching a foreign language was considered against the country's national interests, but as a result of wise policies, China overcame unilateralism and today it appears as an innovator with novel approaches to English as an educational
course .

THE IMPORTANCE OF THE "WHITE LIST" FOR ORGANIZATIONS PARTICIPATING IN STATE PROCUREMENT OF GEORGIA AND ITS RELEVANCE IN 2018-2022

Ana Chagelishvili, Zurab Mushkudiani — Wed, 06 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0400

Every year, about a tenth of Georgia's GDP comes from state procurement. The mentioned fact also emphasizes its importance for those entities of the business sector that are actively involved in procurement processes. Due to a number of reasons, public procurement is regulated by the relevant legal framework and regulations, which creates certain obstacles and hard-to-overcome barriers for the entities participating in it. The purpose of simplifying such processes is served by the "white list" produced by the State Procurement Agency - the register of qualified suppliers, where willing suppliers are registered after meeting the relevant
criteria. Nevertheless, for many subjects, the degree of awareness of the mentioned list and the interest to get into it are low. Moreover, there are negative opinions regarding the above-mentioned register, which must be considered for objective evaluations and for the development of adequate recommendations. Therefore, the aim of the paper is to discuss the importance of the "white list" and evaluate its relevance in the last 5 years, for which a desk research was used.
