Works-in-Progress on Calling for Unity in the Caucasus 1917-1921: The Georgian National Democrats in 1917
On May 10, CRRC, ARISC and American Councils are proud to present the 9th talk of the Spring 2017 Works-in-Progress series on “Calling for Unity in the Caucasus 1917-1921: The Georgian National Democrats in 1917” by Sarah Slye, Title VIII Combined Language and Research Fellow.
Between the February Revolution and Bolshevik takeover of the Caucasus, there were a number competing visions regarding the ideal solution for the future of the region. This presentation explores one aspect of the larger picture: the attitude displayed by Georgian National Democrats in 1917 towards the idea of a politically united Caucasus and the opinions they held about their neighbors, particularly the North Caucasus Mountaineers.
