თარგმანში დაკარგულები: საცხოვრებლის, საცხოვრისის თუ საბინაო პოლიტიკა?

ანოტაცია

The breakdown of the Soviet Union and the transition to a new economic formation, like in other fields, led to major changes in urban
planning as well. The specialized vector was directed to studying practices available in international languages, mainly in English, and to adapting them to their reality. Naturally, this process should be followed by the formation of national concepts and terminology; however, despite the
urgent need, such an activity is still weak and underdeveloped. It is often
impossible to match an English term and its Georgian translation. One of
such terms is „Housing Policy”.

Residence is a key issue in urban and social policy, and it has not lost its significance even in post-Soviet Georgia, which is evidenced by the increased number of recent studies and public discussions about the issue. The ambiguity of the concept and the abundance of the relevant Georgian terms that often led to confusion are very apparent.

The present paper is an attempt to answer the following questions:
What is the meaning of the term „Housing Policy”? What is the existing
lexical experience in the Georgian language, and which Georgian variant is
more relevant for the said English terms – satskhovreblis, satskhovrisis, or
sabinao polit’ik’a?
