Ethnic Fault Lines Revisited

Description

Although internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan, Nogorno-Karabakh is a de facto, but unrecognized, state in the South Caucasus. In February 1988, the parliament voted to secede from Azerbaijan and unite with Armenia, igniting armed conflict. Charges of ethnic cleansing have been leveled on both sides. This episode details the events and their impact on the population. Also included are reports on Cambodia, Guatemala, and a large Muslim enclave in Serbia that has been spared the horrors of ethnic cleansing - until now. Finally, a music video of Luis de la Guerra performing "El Costa de la Vida" is highlighted.
