Re-membering Karabakh. Its tradition, social links and human resources

Caucasus‘ two great leading countries Armenia and Azerbaijan, characterized by socio-political instability and incoherency – either domestic or international, are portraying the long lasting conflict and defining an important issue, which arose tragically through ruthless ambition,controversial thoughts,controversary and misunderstanding among statesman and great politicians. If we take in consider the issue of IDPs from the point of view of the city of Baku, we will encounter a very tragic side of the situation.At the time of invasion, as now, the city of Baku was in the entire country, the city with the best life opportunities, so it made sense to manage the IDPs in this city, as did the former in charge. Consequently, during the invasion the city of Baku had to record a large number of immigrants such as their own population. Since Azerbaijan was unprepared for such a situation, they have used all their possibilities to keep the inevitable immigration under control. Such as tent camps, student hostels from the former soviets, disused factories etc. This “temporary settlement” became a chronic intractable situation.

Lo stato dell' Armenia ha occupato la regione di Nagorno - Karabah in Azerbaijan. Quasi un milione di rifugiati sono scappati nelle città vicine, la maggior parte nella capitale Baku. La tesi propone un percorso di analisi e di studio delle relazioni urbane e socio-economica della città e prevede un intervento alternativo rispetto alla proposta del governo azero di costruire ghetti per i rifugiati. Questa tesi dimostra come sia possibile riattivare un quartiere degradato della città con la progettazione partecipata, l'analisi urbana e il sistema di urban-agri-garden per un futuro per tutti nella città di Baku.
