Abstract

This special issue aims to contextualize the enactment of the law "on transparency of foreign influence,” or the “foreign agents law,” in Georgia with a particular focus on the institutional and discursive dynamics as well as the protest mobilizations that have emerged in response. The contributions in this issue examine four interconnected topics: Georgia’s state-NGO relations amid democratic backsliding; dynamics of protests and practices of interactions related to inclusion and exclusion; governmental discourses and moral defamation of civil society and the LGBTQI community; protest attitudes and behavior between 2023 and 2024.
