In the early 1920s. Armenian protests calling for reunification with Armenia in 1988 led to Azerbaijani pogroms against Armenians and later to armed conflict that claimed over twenty thousand lives. The struggle remains unresolved. A distinguished group of historians and social scientists analyze the Karabagh struggle in this unique volume that covers one of the world's strategic, oil-rich regions.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'This volume serves as an excellent example of the partisan role academics and intellectuals play in ethnonational conflict.
