This issue of the Caucasus Analytical Digest examines the relation
between Azerbaijan's failed attempt at democratization and government
control of the country's petroleum industry. In addition, it features
opinion polls on the level of trust in institutions of state and
society in the countries of the South Caucasus and public interest in
politics and civic engagement. An opinion piece discusses the
prospects for democratization in post-conflict Georgia, arguing that
the regime is now ready to go back on its previous reforms in order
remain in power. The issue ends with a chronicle of regional events
for the period 16 December 2008 to 13 January 2009.
