A few years ago I saw the documentary “Power Trip”, about employees of an American company that was trying to privatize the power utility in Tblisi. Apart from the issues involved in that venture, I was taken by the scenes of the city and drawn to see it myself. I’ve been to some far-flung places in Eastern Europe and am just starting to understand a little about what privatization and democratization has meant to real people. I’d very much like to learn more.
