    Country Report 2018: Georgia
    (2018) Salamadze, Vazha; Latsabidze, Mariam; Avazashvili, Giorgi
    The legislation of Georgia stipulates two basic categories of legal entities—nonprofit legal entity and profit oriented legal entity. The legal form of a non-entrepreneurial (noncommercial) legal entity (NELE) comprises non-entrepreneurial, public, or civil organizations, including but not limited to: CSOs, NGO, PBO, charity organizations, etc. Unregistered groups are treated as unregistered unions (UU), and are not considered legal entities. NELEs have a separate legal personality from their founders and are considered a legal person.

    Smoggy with a Chance of Altruism: The Effects of Ozone Alerts on Outdoor Recreation and Driving in Atlanta
    (2014-02) Noonan, Douglas S.
    Metropolitan smog alerts are prominent public information campaigns designed to enhance public health and to curb driving and other emissions. Unlike many other voluntary information-based environmental policies, air quality alerts target household behavior via forecast information about ambient concentrations rather than firm or product characteristics. This paper explores behaviors with high emissions (driving) and with high exposure (outdoor recreation) and underscores the difference between altruistic and risk aversion motivations. Behavioral impacts are identified using the threshold nature of daily air quality forecasts. A regression discontinuity (RD) design finds elderly users and exercisers tend to curtail their use of a major park following smog alerts. The RD design also reveals that households do not drive less on smog alert days. Juxtaposing high emissions behavior with high exposure behavior in the same study highlights how public forecast information may better trigger some responses and struggle to trigger others.
