Abstract

Regional and local historical studies with a contemporary perspective have had a notable but varied development at the international level in the last quarter of a century, but in recent years they have acquired other dimensions that, many times, have escaped the diligent gaze of our colleagues. These dimensions are directly, although not exclusively, linked to the processes of globalization, whose first echoes reached us from the distant region (macro-region?) of Nagorni Karabakh, where Armenians and Adzerbaizhans settled their regional, national, cultural, religious, and ethnic differences.
