Abstract
summary. The paper looks at the anti-corruption reforms in Georgia, reveals the legal framework for the counteraction of corruption in the country, gives an assessment of the reforms being implemented and their conformity with international rules and principles, and performs an analysis of the measures that are aimed at optimising the anti-corruption mechanism in the context of a particular state. Keywords: corruption, Georgia, legislation, anti-corruption reforms, anti-corruption policy. Legislators, politicians, and the general public have lately been paying more and attention to the search for new models for an effective struggle against corruption. In this context, the author has selected Georgia as the subject for his research, since in recent years this country has been displaying a pronounced tendency towards taking a strong position to counteract corruption. According to the non-governmental international agency Transparency International, which was organised to fight corruption and to research corruption levels in states all over the world, Georgia’s anti-corruption score, based on the corruption perception index (CPI), increased significantly during the past decade. In 2004 the country was ranked 133, but in 2012 it was ranked 51, which meant that Georgia had drawn ahead of such states as the Czech Republic and Turkey (which share 54th position)
