Research Program: Deportation, Ethnic Cleansing, Genocide: Tools of Russian and Soviet Ethnic Policies in the Northern Caucasus (19-20th Centuries) The International School for Caucasus Studies (ISCS) at the Ilia State University is pleased to announce the creation of a new research program that assesses the deportations, ethnic cleansing, and state-sponsored genocide as tools of Tsarist Russian policy and state-sponsored Soviet ethnic policies conducted in the North Caucasus during the 19th and 20th century. The issue of state-sponsored deportations, ethnic cleansing, and genocide in the North Caucasus has been frequently (and increasingly) become the subject of political controversy, but is insufficiently researched on a professional academic basis. Toward that goal Ilia State University has created a new research program aimed at filling this historical gap in global understanding. The Tbilisi state archives have important materials that could considerably increase our knowledge on these issues of great scholarly and public interest though many of ... >> full

HIDDEN NATIONS, ENDURING CRIMES
by
STEPHEN ERIC BRONNER*
Tbilisi looks much like Turin or other of the beautiful cities in Northern Italy. Only it is poorer. The capital of Georgia sits amid hills, lush valleys and flowing rivers. Old reconstructed houses are lodged into bare mountains. New commercial avenues mix with horrible remnants of Soviet architecture and marvelous Byzantine churches, some dating from the 4th century, along with other visible symbols and signs of the feudal past. Still emerging from the shadow of communism, and a shabby war with its Russian neighbor, Tbilisi hosted a remarkable conference – "Hidden Nations, Enduring Crimes: The North Caucasus Between Past and Future” – that dealt with the forgotten genocide against Circassians and other peoples of the Caucuses. Working class activists mixed with businessmen and politicians entered into intelligent and often heated debate with students and academics. The impressive list of participants included Andre Glucksman, the human ... >> full

Forgotten Genocides Project - Genocidal "Pacification"of the Circassians in the Russian CaucasusThe Mid-Nineteenth Century Genocidal "Pacification" of the Circassians in the Russian Caucasus The destruction of the Circassians – who call themselves "Adyghe" – and other indigenous groups of the Caucasus were part of Tsarist Russia’s conquest of the region during the middle-half of the nineteenth century. Ultimately, the Russians aimed to extend its imperial sovereignty and supplant the mostly tribal-based, Islamic-infused population with Slavic, Russophile settlers. A stringent indigenous resistance was brutally put down by the Russians, especially under Tsar Alexander II, who was Emperor of the Russian Empire from 1855 through the end of the Caucasian War in 1864. By the end, hundreds of thousands of Circassians and other indigenous peoples were forcibly relocated, mostly to the Ottoman Empire but also to the lowland regions of the ... >> full
