Լեռնային Ղարաբաղի հիմնախնդիրը 1921-1923 թթ.: Ադրբեջանական պատմագիտության խեղաթյուրումները (The Artsakh Question in 1921–1923: Distortions in Azerbaijani Historiography)

Khachatryan, Armine, 2025
Պատմություն և մշակույթ / History and Culture, Vol. 22, No. 1, pp. 132–150 (Yerevan State University); DOI 10.46991/hc.2025.22.1.132

Khachatryan reconstructs the two years between the July 1921 decision placing Artsakh under Soviet Azerbaijan and the July 1923 decision granting autonomy. Her premise is that the historical-political literature has never adequately studied the situation produced by the 1921 decision, and that treatments of it are frequently one-sided. She argues that the actual consequences of these decisions require fresh clarification, and that the reaction of the population directly affected, the Armenians of Artsakh, has been given almost no attention. Armenian and Azerbaijani historiographies hold sharply opposed positions and leave real gaps; her aim is to establish the sequence of events and ask how far the settlement reflected the free will of the national majority.

How this repository is built

What is in this repository?

Peer-reviewed and institutional scholarship on Armenian subjects — history, the Armenian Genocide, Artsakh, language and literature, the church, and the diaspora — in any language and from any country. Journal articles, books, book chapters, theses and institute publications are all in scope. Entries are chosen for what they contribute to an Armenian student's understanding, not for how recent or how famous they are.

What does 'verified' mean here?

It means a person opened the link and checked the record against the publisher's own page: the title, the authors, the venue, the volume and pages, and the identifier. The date of that check is shown on each entry's page. Where an entry has no date shown, no check has been logged for it yet, and the catalogue does not claim one.

What is the summary on each entry?

A short account of what the publication does, followed by notes on what it offers different readers — a student writing a term paper, an academic, someone reading for the community, someone new to the subject. They are meant to tell you what a piece is useful for, not only what it argues.

How do I suggest a publication, or report an error?

Use the 'Suggest a publication' link at the foot of the directory. The same address takes corrections — a broken link, a wrong page range, a misattributed author. Corrections are checked against the publisher's record before an entry changes.
