Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition of The Caucasus is a thorough update of an essential guide that has introduced thousands of readers to a complex region. Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and the break-away territories that have tried to split away from them constitute one of the most diverse and challenging regions on earth, impressing the visitor with their multi-layered history and ethnic complexity. Over the last few years, the South Caucasus region has captured international attention again because of disputes between the West and Russia, its unresolved conflicts, and its role as an energy transport corridor to Europe. The Caucasus gives the reader a historical overview and an authoritative guide to the three conflicts that have blighted the region. Thomas de Waal tells the story of the "Five-Day War" between Georgia and Russia and recent political upheavals in all three countries. He also finds time to tell the reader about Georgian wine, Baku jazz and how the coast of Abkhazia was known as "Soviet Florida." Short, stimulating and rich in detail, The Caucasus is the perfect guide to this fascinating and little-understood region.

Download or read book Armenia and Europe written by Pål Wilter Skedsmo and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Armenia receives one of the highest levels of international aid per capita in the Western world, and among the highest of the post-Soviet states. This ethnographic study, based on new primary research, looks at aid in the South Caucasus, and its role in Armenia's relationship with Europe. In particular, Skedsmo argues that the Aarhus Convention, which entitles citizens of Europe to access information and participation in decision-making in environmental matters such as infrastructure projects, has allowed Armenian citizens to adapt and control the direction of their country's political future in various ways - whether through protest activism or legal challenges. A new examination of aid and development, and the structures these create, Europe and Armenia will be an essential case study for scholars of development, for regional specialists in the post-soviet area (especially South Caucasus), social anthropologists, students of post socialism and development (postcolonialism). In addition, the book will be of interest for practitioners and European policy-makers, transnational organizations and others involved in development policies and projects in the region."--Bloomsbury Publishing.
Download or read book The International Politics of the Armenian Azerbaijani Conflict written by Svante E. Cornell and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-01-20 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book frames the Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh in the context of European and international security. It is the first book to focus on the politics of the conflict rather than the dispute itself. Since their emergence twenty years ago, this and other “frozen conflicts” of Eurasia have been affected by transformations in European security, and many ways absorbed into an ever fiercer geopolitical struggle for influence. The wars in Georgia and Ukraine brought greater attention to some unresolved conflicts, but not to the conflict between Armenia and Azerbaijan. As the contributors to this volume argue, the conflict merits much greater European attention, for several reasons: it is on a path of escalation, existing mediation regimes are dysfunctional, and as both Georgia and Ukraine have showed, any outbreak of serious fighting will force the EU to respond. This book thus explains the interlocking interests of Russia, Turkey, Iran, the EU and United States in the conflict, and analyzes the negotiation process and the conflict’s international legal aspects.

Download or read book Armenia Crucified written by Diana Agabeg Apca and published by . This book was released on 2014-02-17 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SIX months before war was declared in Europe the Russian Government and the German Government entered into a secret Convention with the Turkish Government for the extermination of the Armenians.Whether it was the government of Rasputin and the Empress notoriously in league with Germany, or whether it was the government of Autocratic Russia, that since the accession of the Tsar Alexander III had sought the extermination of the Armenians, has not yet been traced, for the present, the extent of the knowledge ascertained, is, that six months before war was declared in Europe, a representative of authority in Russia secretly went to Constantinople, and there in conjunction with the representative of the German Government, secretly entered into a Convention with the Young Turk Government for the extermination of the Armenians.As the Armenians had neither been consulted nor apprised when this secret Russo-Germano-Turco Convention was being ratified, the proclamation of the Tsar Nicholas II opened out a glorious vision before their eyes. It precipitated the whole Armenian nation headlong into the trap of the betrayer. There was great enthusiasm among Armenians abroad. Russia was hailed as a deliverer, and volunteers burning to strike the stroke of liberation hurried breathlessly to the Caucasus to help to deliver the Fatherland from the accursed Turkish yoke.Three and a half years of war in Europe have brought forth many revelations, and among them, one of the most important, that Authority in Russia joined in the war against Germany not for the purpose of fighting Germany but in the hope of preventing the down-fall of Autocracy in Russia.The revelations in the trail of the war have disclosed that there were two Russias, and that the one Russia was warring against the other Russia in co-operation with Germany.This Russia helped Hindenburg to sink whole regiments of Russians in the Mazurian swamps.This Russia gave up by a series of wanton retreats, whole cities, and miles upon miles of territory to Germany. This Russia sent millions of Russians against the German cannons, with the express purpose of getting them killed off. And this Russia in co-operation with Germany emptied Armenia of Armenians.If the Russian Army had remained in Russia, the campaign in Armenia would have resulted in a swift and glorious success, for then all the victories of the Armenians would not have been blasted there would have been no evacuations of occupied positions, and no wanton retreats, purposely undertaken when victory was in the grasp, to prevent help from reaching the defenseless Armenian population.The Armenians in Turkish Armenia and Asia Minor were defenseless and absolutely dependant on help from outside: Russia took care that help should not reach them and that the Germans and the Turks should have the time and opportunity for exterminating them either outright by massacre, the Turkish form of extirpation, or by the deportations, the German scientific form of extirpation.It may be argued why should Russia seek to empty Armenia of Armenians? What had Russia with her vast territory, her enormous resources, and her over-whelming population to fear from a few million Armenians? The answer to such an argument (supposed it were made) is, that facts are conclusive; facts are stubborn things that stand. It is a fact that since the accession of the Tsar Alexander III to the throne of the Romanoffs, Russia has sought the extermination of the Armenians.It is a fact that the Tsar Alexander HI had given assurances of his friendship to Abdul Hamid. It is a fact that Prince Lobanoff the Prime Minister of the Tsar Alexander III proclaimed that Russia "would annex Armenia when there were no Armenians left". It is a fact that after the massacres of Abd-ul Hamid had raged for several months, Prince Lobanoff saw nothing to destroy his confidence in the "bonne volontè" of the Sultan "who" he (Prince Lobanoff) "felt assured was doing his best".

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict for control of the mountainous territory of Nagorny Karabakh is the longest-running dispute in post-Soviet Eurasia. Laurence Broers shows how more than 20 years of dynamic territorial politics, shifting power relations, international diffusion and unsuccessful mediation efforts have contributed to the resilience of this stubbornly unresolved dispute. Looking beyond tabloid tropes of 'frozen conflict' or 'Russian land-grab', Broers unpacks the unresolved territorial issues of the 1990s and the strategic rivalry that has built up around them since.

Download or read book History of Armenia by Father Michael Chamich written by Mikʻayel Chʻamchʻyantsʻ and published by . This book was released on 1827 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: History of Armenia, from B. C. 2247 to the year of Christ 1780, or 1229 of the Armenian era is a translation of an abridged version of the three-volume history of Armenia, originally written in Armenian by Father Mik'ayel Ch'amch'yants' and published in Venice in 1784-86. Ch'amch'yants' was born in Istanbul in 1738, and in 1762 he became a member of the Armenian Catholic Mekhitarist order at the St. Lazar Monastery in Venice. Written in chronicle style and based on Armenian and non-Armenian primary source materials, this work by Ch'amch'yants' was the first critical examination of the history of the Armenian people. In 1811 Ch'amch'yants' produced an abridged version of the history, which Hovhannēs Avdaleantsʻ (Johannes Avdall) translated into English and which was published in Calcutta (present-day Kolkata) in 1827. The translation includes a dedication by Avdaleantsʻ to the Asiatic Society of Bengal, a preface by Avdaleantsʻ containing an overview of the history of Armenia and assessments of the most important Armenian historians, and a postscript containing a summary of events in Armenia from 1780 to 1827.
