Abstract
The paper deals with aspects of the collective memory of Armenians, illustrated by two recent examples. Against the background of the current disputes over Arzach, some historical components are drawn upon. At the beginning the erection of the monument in memory of the Nemesis operation in 1920-1922 in April this year is analyzed. This leads back to the 19th century, the time of increasing penetration of the Ottoman Empire by the great European powers in its effects on the Armenian nation, as expressed in the term "Armenian Question". This is combined with the German left's view on this matter. Finally, a discussion of the interweaving of the right to self-determination (SDR) and the right to territorial integrity (TI) follows in this context.
