Abstract

The article analyzes the contemporary discourse about a divided nation and common homeland of Azerbaijanis living on both sides of the river Arax. The creation of a new independent state after the collapse of the Soviet Union also implied a new interpretation and revision of the history of Turkic-speaking citizens of neighboring Iran.
