Scientists from Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia publish book "History
of South Caucasus".
The scientists from Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia havr published
"The History of the South Caucasus". According to Turan news agency,
Aydin Aslanov, chief of department of history of the Azerbaijan's
Teachers Institute, told a news conference Tuesday that the first
variant of the book in Russia is ready.
The authors from Armenia and Georgia are historians Armen Hachikyan
and Paata Ramishvili.
In February the book will be published in Russian in 1000 exemplars.
They will be distributed to libraries, scientific and educational
establishments of the three countries. The e-version of the book will
be posted in the internet.
The book will be translated into English under the EU support. There is
also a plan to publish this book in Armenian, Azerbaijani and Georgian.
Aslanov noted that it has been the second attempt to release such a
book. In 1995 there was proposed an initiative to publish a book on
the history of the South Caucasus under the joint participation and
support of the Council of Europe. In 2002 the work was frozen as the
Ministry of Education of Armenia and Azerbaijan did not ratify it
and the book was not published.
Then there came a decision to write a new book in which the authors
from Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan would present their own vision of
the historical processes in the region. This program was implemented
last year.
