Thank you, instead of replying individually, for all the nice e-mails and phone calls, and once more thanks to our interpreters. The Special Issue can be downloaded (of course for free) under www.eufaj.eu. We follow this line in this issue with an unofficial translation of the first part of the Eurasian Economic Union Treaty, which so far seems to exist only in Russian and languages of other contracting parties. The EEU Treaty is an interesting tool to understand - or not? - the (economic) motivation of the CIS countries belonging to the sphere of Russia. We will compare it with the EU in detail in one of the next issues. A large part of this issue is dedicated to Turkey; this was all written

  • The EU and the South Caucasus 25 Years Since Independence Nov 25, 2016 by Amanda Paul
    The EU and the South Caucasus 25 Years Since Independence Nov 25, 2016 by Amanda Paul Wedged between regional powers Russia, Iran and Turkey, the South Caucasus is an extraordinarily complex region; one of the most security-challenged and fragmented regions in the world with internal and external security threats working to reinforce each other. The three South Caucasus states – Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan – are complicated even in their internal configuration. Twenty-five years since the collapse of the Soviet Union the region remains plagued by conflict, its people living in insecurity. Moreover, the region has not been politically or economically integrated. Rather Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia have integrated into a wide-range of different, sometimes opposing, organisations and alliances. The EU joined the mix of actors and organisations engaged in the South Caucasus in the early 1990‟s intensifying its engagement over the years with the three states becoming part of the EU‟s European Neighbourhood Policy (ENP) and Eastern Partnership (EaP). Despite hopes that the ENP/EaP could act as transformative tool to help strengthen stability, security, democracy and bring about a more cohesive region, the results have been rather patchy. The EU has failed to carve out a clear strategy or policy for the region and with the exception of Georgia there has been little genuine will to implement serious reform. Moreover, Russia‟s annexation of Crimea and war in the Donbas in 2014 and the increasingly polarised standoff between Moscow and the West has further exacerbated the fragile security situation, further exposing the inability of the EU to guarantee or even shore-up a partner‟s security.

As of January 1, 1995, the formal name of the Helsinki process was changed to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). The OSCE is engaged in standard setting in fields including military security, economic and envi- ronmental cooperation, and human rights and humanitarian concerns.

  • THE IMPACT of the ARMENIAN GENOCIDE on the FORMATION of NATIONAL STATEHOOD and POLITICAL IDENTITY “Today Most Armenians Do
    ASHOT ALEKSANYAN THE IMPACT OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE ON THE FORMATION OF NATIONAL STATEHOOD AND POLITICAL IDENTITY Key words – Armenian Genocide, pre-genocide, post-genocide, national statehood, Armenian statehood heritage, political identity, civiliarchic elite, civilization, civic culture, Armenian diaspora, Armenian civiliarchy “Today most Armenians do not live in the Republic of Armenia. Indeed, most Armenians have deep ties to the countries where they live. Like a lot of us, many Armenians find themselves balancing their role in their new country with their historical and cultural roots. How far should they assimilate into their new countries? Does Armenian history and culture have something to offer Armenians as they live their lives now? When do historical and cultural memories create self-imposed limits on individuals?”1 Introduction The relevance of this article is determined, on the one hand, the multidimen- sionality of issues related to understanding the role of statehood and the political and legal system in the development of Armenian civilization, civic culture and identity, on the other hand - the negative impact of the long absence of national system of public administration and the devastating impact of the Armenian Genocide of 1915 on the further development of the Armenian statehood and civiliarchy. Armenian Genocide in Ottoman Turkey was the first ever large-scale crime against humanity and human values. Taking advantage of the beginning of World War I, the Turkish authorities have organized mass murder and deportations of Armenians from their historic homeland. Genocide divided the civiliarchy of the Armenian people in three parts: before the genocide (pre-genocide), during the genocide and after the genocide (post-genocide).

  • Final Report: Review of Export Permits to Turkey” Published by Global Affairs Canada
    CANADA: HUMAN RIGHTS CHAMPION OR PAWN TO AUTOCRATIC REGIMES IN THE GLOBAL ARMS TRADE? Response to the “Final report: Review of export permits to Turkey” published by Global Affairs Canada May 4, 2021 Mtre Anaïs Kadian and Mtre Emilie Béatrice Kokmanian, Attorneys-at-law* I. INTRODUCTION In its Final report: Review of export permits to Turkey (the “Final Report”) published in April 20211, Global Affairs Canada (“GAC”) concludes that Electro-Optical/Infra-Red imaging and targeting sensor systems manufactured by the Canadian company L3Harris Wescam (the “Targeting Sensors”) and exported to Turkey were found in Nagorno- Karabakh (also known as “Artsakh”) and used by the government of Azerbaijan to target and attack the Armenian population in the region, all of which was contrary to the end- assurances given by Turkey and to Canada’s foreign policy. 2 Yet, the Final Report is conveniently silent on the question of the responsibility of the Minister of Foreign Affairs (the “Minister” or “Ministry”) in the matter. In our opinion, given the criteria imposed by the Export and Import Permits Act (the “EIPA” or “Act”), the Minister should not have approved the export permits of Canadian military technology destined to Turkey in May 2020. Thus, the Final Report errs in its approach in that: (i) it omits to analyze the Minister’s initial decision to issue the export permits to Turkey in light of the EIPA’s criteria and (ii) it ignores the facts and evidence demonstrating the illegal use of this military technology by Turkey as well as the substantial risk which continues to exist today.

  • Ethiopia´S Armenians – a Lost Diaspora?
    Ethiopia´s Armenians – a lost Diaspora? A study of the role of identity in the Armenian diaspora Markus Haile Department of Social Anthropology Bachelor´s thesis 15 credits Advanced Course in Social Anthropology 30 credits Spring term 2006 Supervisor: Monica Lindh de Montoya Abstract The purpose of this study is to delve into the role of identity, an identity that is constantly in change in an every-changing national context. In this text I have studied the Armenian community of Ethiopia. A community that was once very strong and influential, a community that has made a considerable impact on the Ethiopian society over the years. This is a community that takes great pride in themselves, yet, at the same time has integrated into whichever society that they have settled into. The Ethio-Armenian community has maintained their core identity and at the same time absorbed the host society's customs and cultures. They are a unique community where most refer to themselves as 100% Armenian and at the same time 100% Ethiopian. This study explores a community that not too many people are aware of in a third world country. Keywords: Ethiopia, Ethio-Armenians, Ethiopian-Armenians, Diaspora, Armenians, Identity, Culture Acknowledgments This text is dedicated to all Ethio-Armenians as a sign of gratitude for everything you have done for Ethiopia over the years. Your pride, your passion and your Ethiopianess. The text would have never been possible without the Armenians of Ethiopia that lend me their stories and ears. I would to specifically like to thank Vahe Tilbian, Sevan Aslanian and Garbis Korajian.

  • Ethnic Return of Armenian Americans: Per- Spectives
    Karolina Pawłowska: Ethnic return of Armenian Americans: Perspectives Ethnic return of Armenian Americans: Per- spectives Karolina Pawłowska University of Adam Mickiewicz in Poznan, [email protected] Abstract The field research conducted among the very few Armenian Americans who have moved to Armenia showed that the phenomena of migration of the diaspora of Armenians to Armenia holds great potential both as a theoretical issue within migration studies and potentially a social phenomenon, as Armenian Americans differ from other migrants and expats in Armenia, because they carry stereotyped pre-images of that land that influence their expectations toward their future lives there. Field research conducted in Armenia in 2012 shows that the disillusionment that repatriation brings causes internal tensions and identity crises, eventually forcing migrants to redefine their role in Armenia in the frame- work of their contribution to the development of their homeland, often isolating them from local Armenians through diaspora practices and maintaining the symbolic boundary between these two groups of Armenians in Armenia. KEYWORDS: diaspora, ethnic return, symbolic boundary, boundary maintenance, so- journers Introduction Both diaspora and specifically the Armenian diaspora are topics well explored in litera- ture (Cohen 2008; Dufoix 2008; Bauböck & Faist 2010; Tölölyan 2012). However, the migration of Armenians from the diaspora to Armenia is not a popular topic among re- searchers and the diaspora of Armenians themselves. The number

  • Incomplete Hegemonies, Hybrid Neighbours: Identity Games and Policy Tools in Eastern Partnership Countries Andrey Makarychev
    Incomplete Hegemonies, Hybrid Neighbours: Identity games and policy tools in Eastern Partnership countries Andrey Makarychev No 2018/02, February 2018 Abstract This paper applies the concepts of hegemony and hybridity as analytical tools to help understand the structural changes taking place within the Eastern Partnership (EaP) countries and beyond. The author points to the split identities of many post-Soviet societies and the growing appeal of solutions aimed at balancing Russia’s or the EU’s dominance as important factors shaping EaP dynamics. Against this background, he explores how the post-Soviet borderlands can find their place in a still hypothetical pan-European space, and free themselves from the tensions of their competing hegemons. The EaP is divided into those countries that signed Association Agreements with the EU and those preferring to maintain their loyalty to Eurasian integration. Bringing the two groups closer together, however, is not beyond policy imagination. The policy-oriented part of this analysis focuses on a set of ideas and schemes aimed at enhancing interaction and blurring divisions between these countries. The author proposes five scenarios that might shape the future of EaP countries’ relations with the EU and with Russia: 1) the conflictual status quo in which both hegemonic powers will seek to weaken the position of the other; 2) trilateralism (EU, Russia plus an EaP country), which has been tried and failed, but still is considered as a possible option by some policy analysts; 3) the Kazakhstan-Armenia model of diplomatic advancement towards the EU, with some potential leverage on Russia; 4) deeper engagement by the EU with the Eurasian Economic Union, which has some competences for tariffs and technical standards; and 5) the decoupling of security policies from economic projects, which is so far the most difficult option to foresee and implement in practice.

    Italy in the European Union POL S 346/JSIS A 302: Europeanizaon of poli:cal systems Spring Term 2017 Frank Wendler May 23, 2017 Italy in the EU From top leL clockwise to center: Signing of the Treaty of Rome founding the EEC in 1957, former Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi, EU Foreign Policy Representave Federica Mogherini, 5-Star Movement leader Beppe Grillo, a scene with refugees on Lampedusa, portal of Italian bank Monte dei Paschi and President Obama with Italian PM Maeo Renzi in 2016. Three theses about Italy’s membership in the European Union (1) Membership in the European Union has worked as an almost con:nuous pressure for economic and poli:cal reform in Italy. (2) These economic and poli:cal reforms are hard to realize because of the specific structure of Italy’s poli:cal system, which combines a strong ins:tu:onal consensus democracy with high poli:cal polarizaon. (3) The result is that Europeanizaon has increased the centrifugal tendencies of Italian poli:cs, leaving three main op:ons for a resolu:on: an:-elite populism, technocrac government or ins:tu:onal reform. ‘Gli Esami Non Finiscono Mai’ Vincent della Sala ‘Gli Esami Non Finiscono Mai’: The EU as an ininite test of Italy’s modernization • Italy as a founding member of the EEC 1957 • Post-war stabiliziaon and rehabilitaon • Par:cipaon in the Single Market • EC Single Market as a test of Italy’s compe::veness • Membership in the Eurozone • Far-reaching economic and social reform passed to meet membership criteria • Link between EU Membership and domes:c poli:cal reform • 2016
