On Saturday the 19th I presented at the ASEEES on the topic of ‘Contemporary Geopolitical Attitudes in Abkhazia and South Ossetia: Some Survey Evidence’ to an early morning audience of about 30 people. In the next two months I will endeavor to write up this presentation in the form of an article to be sent out for review. I have an audio recording of the session of the session with presentations in the following order, and will post it when I get the time to convert it:
