The First Republic of Armenia (1918-1920) On Its Centenary, Bedross Der Matossian, editor (softcover)

This edited volume provides a multifaceted and interdisciplinary approach to studying the fascinating history of the first Republic. Through an analysis of the politics, gender issues, and diplomacy of the period, the nine papers enrich our understanding of the short-lived independent republic, which played a crucial role in guaranteeing the perseverance of Armenian identity and ultimately laying the foundation for the modern Republic of Armenia. This volume was inspired by a 2018 conference titled “Innovative Approaches to the History of the First Republic of Armenia, 1918-1920,” organized by the Society for Armenian Studies and the Armenian Communities Department of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation.
