Welcome to an international conference 'Small Nations on the Border
of a Great Power: Finland and Georgia Compared'.

Wednesday 29th August 9 am to Thursday 30th August 3.30 pm at the

This conference compares the experiences of Finland and Georgia from
the sixteenth century to the present day. In spite of many
similarities in the historical evolution of national identity and
incorporation into the Russian Empire at the same time, in relations
with Russia there could not be a greater contrast. Where are the
similarities and differences, and what lessons can these two small
countries learn from each other?

Blauvelt, Max Engman, Suvi Kansikas, Kimmo Katajala, Nino Kemoklidze,
