1978 Georgian demonstrations: On 14 April 1978, demonstrations in Tbilisi, capital of the Georgian SSR, took place in response to an attempt by the Soviet government to change the constitutional status of languages in Georgia.  After a new Soviet Constitution was adopted in October 1977, the Supreme Soviet of the Georgian SSR considered a draft constitution in which, in contrast to the Constitution of 1936, Georgian was no longer declared to be the sole State language.  A series of indoor and outdoor actions of protest ensued and implied with near-certainty there would be a clash between several thousands of demonstrators and the Soviet government, but Georgian Communist Party chief Eduard Shevardnadze negotiated with the central authorities in Moscow and managed to obtain permission to retain the previous status of the Georgian language.

1956 Georgian demonstrations: The March 1956 demonstrations (also known as the 1956 Tbilisi riots or 9 March massacre) in the Georgian SSR were a series of protests against Nikita Khrushchev's de-Stalinization policy, which shocked Georgian supporters of Marxist–Leninist–Stalinist ideology.  The center of the protests was the republic's capital, Tbilisi, where spontaneous rallies to mark the third anniversary of Stalin's death and to protest Khrushchev's denunciation of Stalin quickly evolved into an uncontrollable mass demonstration and rioting which paralyzed the city.  Soon, political demands such as the change of the central government in Moscow and calls for the independence of Georgia from the Soviet Union appeared.

Devdariani was born in the village of Kharagauli, Western Georgia into a large family.  In 1919, Devdariani was arrested by the Menshevik Government of Georgia for plotting and masterminding an insurrection against the democratically elected government.  He was imprisoned in Metekhi but managed to escape from the prison in 1920.  Between 1921 and 1923, Devdariani worked in various communist ministries of Georgian SSR.  From 1929 to 1931 Devdariani became the first Minister of Education of the Georgian SSR.  During the same year Devdariani became the honorable member of the Georgian National Academy of Sciences in the department of Economics.  After only a year as a Minister, he was promoted to the First Secretary of the Communist Party of the Georgian SSR.  However, soon after his appointment, Lavrentiy Beria (Communist Party Secretary of Transcaucasia) started agitations and provocations against Gaioz.

On the Cult of Personality and Its Consequences: "On the Cult of Personality and Its Consequences" (Russian: «О культе личности и его последствиях» , «"O kul'te lichnosti i ego posledstviyakh"») was a report by Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev made to the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union on 25 February 1956.

Khrushchev charged Stalin with having fostered a leadership personality cult despite ostensibly maintaining support for the ideals of communism.

Khrushchev: The Man and His Era: Khrushchev: The Man and His Era is a 2003 biography of Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev.
