El primer hijo(a) de Proyecto Cáucaso ya vio la luz. Este lunes 5 de noviembre comienza el desarme de uno de our dreams come true (the exhibition of photographs). And Caucasus Project could say that is no longer a project but something concrete. But lacking a bit for this to be completely true.
Another of our initiatives is the television program. Gradually taking shape four chapters that give life to this new child (a). The first episode is an introduction to the area by publicizing the main themes of the three South Caucasus countries. Oil, war, identity, religion, customs and challenges come together in this first half-hour television series.
The other three chapters are specific issues that cut across societies of Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia. Capitalism and how these countries adapt to this new model is what we aim to deepen the first episode. The split between the younger generation and those who lived in the Soviet era, is one of the main problems that have faced these societies and reflected a very good way in the television series. Furthermore, this episode gives us light to entneder the emergence of major brands and change its attitude towards a reality where the certainties are gone, but freedom emerges as the most important value.
Democracy is the focus of another chapter. Understand that this concept the same all over the world and that is far from an easy recipe to implement, is what it purports to investigate this half hour program. Many times, according to Western eyes, we believe that the best political system is democracy as we understand, however, to make such judgments must be careful not to move to bring the cultural heritages of the people who ultimately seem to have systems corresponding to them (or deserve). A special case, that if, as Azerbaijan and the oil factor is gravitating to the time to think about the political system they have; a dictatorship supported implicitly by the Western powers.
Identity is the theme that closes this saga four chapters. Explore the importance of religion and wars is a good start to understand many of the attitudes and ways of seeing the life of the inhabitants of the Caucasus. Although they do not have much memory of independence have managed to maintain their traditions and cultures still under the sway of various empires.
By the time the series has a name, but we want to keep in reserve to be a surprise.
Caucasus Project will continue to do, that if thinking that we're getting closer to that ceases to be a project. NANDO
