Jason E. Strakes: Cross-Regional Diplomacy and the Nagorno-Karabakh Conflict, Gebunden

Klappentext

The study presented in this book analyzes the relationship between the Armenia- Azerbaijan Nagorno-Karabakh conflict and the Global South from 1994 to 2023. It examines the diplomatic strategies pursued by both states in regions beyond Europe and Eurasia in response to the mediating performance of the OSCE Minsk Group Co- Chairs (U. S., Russia, and France). This approach addresses how the ultimate outcome of the conflict defied the assumptions of observers who prioritized the competing interests of the major powers. The theoretical framework places Nagorno-Karabakh within the context of hierarchical system structures at both the domestic and international levels. Additional chapters compare and contrast both countries' foreign policy interactions with individual states and international organizations representing the Middle East, Africa, Asia, and Latin America, as well as linkages that emerged between the Armenian-Azerbaijani rivalry and the Israeli-Palestinian, Kashmir and Falkland Islands / Malvinas conflicts.
