| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Why Karabakh? Why has this small patch of land been a bone of contention in the Caucasus for so long (since the 19th century)?
The answers, not infrequently placed in political and ethnic contexts, are numerous:
Historical memory of the various Caucasian nationalities about alleged ethnic insults;
Antagonistic ethnopolitical contradictions due to the absence of ethnic complementariness among the main local ethnic groups;
The clash between two major postulates of international law: the territorial integrity of states and the right of nations to self-determination;
Territorial claims that develop into aggression;
The geopolitically conditioned continuous conflict caused by the neo-imperial intentions of the main players on the world political scene; |
