SUMMARY
Ivane Javakhishvili actively cooperated with the Georgian political parties on the issues of maintenance of the national distinctiveness and building the statehood of Georgia; although he became the member of the political party the Union of (Non-Party) Independents, which was created in July, 1918. The party was striving to contribute to the democratic development of Georgia. The Union of (Non-Party) Independents first tried to form the alliance with the National Democratic Party to run in the elections of the Constituent Assembly of Georgia (1919), although later opted to participate independently in the elections. In the electoral list of the party Ivane Javakhishvili was listed as N2. The Union of (Non-Party) Independents did not manage to secure even a seat in the Constituent Assembly of Georgia. During the existence of the Democratic Republic of Georgia (1918-1921) the Union of (Non-Party) Independents was very active and Ivane Javakhishvili participated in various activities organized by the party. In January, 1921, the Democratic Party of Georgia was created, which united all non-Socialist parties of those times, among them was the Union of (Non-Party) Independents.
