"Where the Cold War Never Ended and the New World Order Never Arrived: Karabakh Diplomacy in the 1990s" is a rare insider's account of the diplomacy surrounding the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict following the collapse of the Soviet Union.

Volume II. Through extensive interviews with leading diplomats, negotiators, mediators, and political figures directly involved in the peace process, Gerard J. Libaridian takes readers inside the negotiations, revealing how decisions were made, why opportunities for peace were lost, and how the competing interests of Armenia, Azerbaijan, Karabakh, Russia, the United States, Turkey, Iran, and the OSCE shaped events. Together, these conversations provide a unique oral history of Karabakh diplomacy, illuminating the negotiations, the personalities behind them, and the successes, frustrations, and missed opportunities of the 1990s.

Volume I complements this account with Libaridian's firsthand experience and historical analysis, drawing on his service as Senior Advisor to Armenia's first president, Secretary of the Security Council, Ambassador-at-Large, and First Deputy Foreign Minister. It argues that Cold War strategic thinking survived the Soviet Union itself, frustrating hopes for a genuinely cooperative international order and illuminating a defining diplomatic challenge of the post-Soviet era.
