Abstract
Like many post-Soviet states, post-Soviet Georgia redrew its administrative territorial regions. The state was divided into 11 districts. The Armenian-populated southern areas were basically incorporated into the newly created Samtskhe-Djavakh district. However, the district did not include the mostly Armenian-populated Dzalka region (the Treghk kavar of the Gugark state of Historical Medz Hayk). The latter was incorporated into the mostly Azeri-populated Kvemo Kartli District.
The Djavakhk Armenians rejected the Georgian leader Edward Shevardnadze's July 31, 1994 decree 237. whereby the Samtskhe-Djavakhk district was established. They opposed the Georgian leadership and criticized the decisio to incorporate parts of Djavakhk (Akhalkalak and Ninodzminta [aka Bogdanovka] under another district (Akhalkalak and surrounding areas). However, the Djavakhk Armenian activists and civil society groups did not produce any unified administrative-territorial counter suggestion, netiher did they produce any unified theoretical framework. A similar chaotic situation existed when there were demans and suggestions for autonomy concerning the Djavakhk area. Eventually no positive steps were taken in the educational-cultural and socio-economic spheres, nor for the administrative-territorial aspect and the granting of autonomy to Djavakhk within the Georgian state.
