AZERBAIJAN: STATE HOUNDS MUSLIM LEADERS IWPR - 12 April 2002 Posted 16 April 2002 on RELIGIOSCOPE The Azerbaijani government, apparently concerned over religious extremism and corruption, is cracking down on the country's main Muslim organisation. When the government set up a special body to deal with religious groups last year, its founders said it had limited ambitions. But over the last few months, the new office, State Committee for Relations with Religious Organisations, has begun to undermine the main semi-official Islamic authority in the country, the Board of Muslims of the Caucasus, putting the two in open conflict. The head of the board is Sheikh ul-Islam Haji Allahshukur Pashazade, the main official cleric in Azerbaijan since Communist times, who welcomed the foundation of the government's new "mediating structure" in June 2001, on the grounds that it would not interfere with his duties. But the new committee, which first of all said it would concentrate on monitoring radical religious groups, soon began to ask difficult questions about the board as well.

COUNTRY STUDIES Azerbaijan - GOVERNMENT Azerbaijan - Government and Politics In the late 1980s, the advent of Mikhail S. Gorbachev's policy of glasnost in Moscow encouraged vocal opposition to the ruling Azerbaijani Communist Party (ACP). In 1989 the central opposition role went to the Azerbaijani Popular Front (APF), which was able to capture the presidency in the 1992 election. But failure to resolve the disastrous conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh continued to destabilize Azerbaijani regimes throughout the early 1990s. Growing masses of disaffected refugees pressed vociferously for military victory and quickly shifted their support from one leader to another when losses occurred, negating efforts to establish solid political institutions at home or to make concessions that might provide a diplomatic solution to the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. In 1993 the APF leadership was overthrown, and former communist official Heydar Aliyev was installed as president. The Appearance of Opposition Parties The Azerbaijani Popular Front Party Configuration after 1991 Legislative Politics The Presidential Election of 1992 The Coup of June 1993 Aliyev and the Presidential Election of October 1993 The Constitution The Court System Human Rights and the Media Azerbaijan - The Appearance of Opposition Parties The political and social groups that sprang up in Azerbaijan in the late 1980s were initially termed "informal organizations" because they were not yet recognized as legal under Soviet practice. By the end of 1988, about forty such organizations had emerged, many of them focused on nationalism or anti-Armenian issues. The ACP was increasingly regarded as illegitimate by the population, especially after the Soviet army intervened to protect the communist regime in January 1990.

Z Source: www.exchange-rates.org World Middle East Azerbaijan (Notes) Azerbaijan - Government and Political Conditions (Notes) GOVERNMENT AND POLITICAL CONDITIONS Although the Government of Azerbaijan consists of three branches, Azerbaijan has a strong presidential system in which the legislative and judicial branches have only limited independence. The executive branch is made up of a president, his apparat, a prime minister, and the cabinet of ministers. The legislative branch consists of the 125-member parliament (Milli Majlis). Members are elected for 5-year terms, with 100 of them elected from territorial districts and 25 elected from party lists. The judicial branch, headed by a Constitutional Court, is nominally independent. Azerbaijan declared its independence from the former Soviet Union on August 30, 1991, with Ayaz Mutalibov, former First Secretary of the Azerbaijani Communist Party, becoming the country's first President. Following a March 1992 massacre of Azerbaijanis at Khojali in Nagorno-Karabakh (a predominantly ethnic Armenian region within Azerbaijan), Mutalibov resigned and the country experienced a period of political instability. The old guard returned Mutalibov to power in May 1992, but less than a week later his efforts to suspend scheduled presidential elections and ban all political activity prompted the opposition Popular Front Party (PFP) to organize a resistance movement and take power. Among its reforms, the PFP dissolved the predominantly Communist Supreme Soviet and transferred its functions to the 50-member upper house of the legislature, the National Council.

you are here home Asia Azerbaijan Government Azerbaijan, Government Azerbaijan is a presidential republic, governed under a constitution adopted by referendum in 1995. The new constitution replaced the 1978 constitution, which had been amended to reflect Azerbaijan’s new status after the republic gained independence in 1991. The head of state is the president, who is directly elected for a term of five years. The president appoints a prime minister and a cabinet of ministers, who carry out the day-to-day operations of government. Legislative power is vested in the Milli Majlis, or National Assembly, a unicameral (single-chamber) body composed of 125 members who serve five-year terms. Under the country’s electoral law, 25 seats in the Milli Majlis are awarded to candidates according to the proportion of the vote their parties draw in elections. The remaining 100 seats are filled by the winners of district elections. Political parties with representation in the Milli Majlis include the New Azerbaijan Party, the Popular Front of Azerbaijan, and the National Independence Party. Legislative elections were last held in 1995. All citizens of Azerbaijan age 18 and older are eligible to vote. The judiciary consists of a Supreme Court, which is the country’s highest court, and the Constitutional Court, which acts as the guarantor of the 1995 constitution. Members of both courts are nominated by the president and approved by the Milli Majlis. For purposes of local government, Azerbaijan is divided into 71 administrative regions, consisting of 59 districts, 11 cities, and the autonomous republic of Naxc?van. The local government of Naxc?van adheres to the republic’s constitution and cooperates with the central government. The enclave of Nagorno-Karabakh has no official designation at this time. It was established as an autonomous region in 1923, but this status was officially abolished in 1991 due to the conflict in the region. In December 1991 Nagorno-Karabakh declared itself an independent republic, but neither Azerbaijan nor any other country, including Armenia, formally recognized its independence.
