ABSTRACT

This chapter considers some insights on the features of that particular societal response in a situation of politically non-resolved and militarily never-ending conflict and the effects that situation produces on Armenian people trajectories. The Armenian people rose up and their foremost demand was: Nagorno-Karabakh. The Sumgait events of February 1988 where 32 Armenians were killed and 197 injured in the span of a three-day pogrom in Azerbaijan. The gradual process of turning volunteers into experienced soldiers and then professional military officers was at work long before the cease-fire of 1994. The Yerkrapah Union’s creation aimed more specifically at supporting the process of reintegration of war veterans and maintaining their engagement. Trajectories in the long cease-fire period of 25 years can be analysed as a reflection of a process of alert institutionalization on the level of the state but also its impregnation by individual practices.
