The largest clusters of these communities are in such cities as Baku,\u0000Quba (a suburb of Krasnaya Sloboda) and Oghuz (formerly Vartashen). The uniqueness\u0000of the Jewish community in the Caucasus lies primarily in the specificity of their\u0000culture, traditions and customs, which were influenced by close contacts with individual\u0000Caucasian peoples for many years. This article is an attempt to show the agglomeration\u0000of Caucasian Jews and Georgian Jews in Azerbaijan. On the other hand, it is also\u0000worth noting the process of their assimilation in a Muslim country and the attitude of\u0000the authorities in Azerbaijan to the Jewish community.","PeriodicalId":124291,"journal":{"name":"Pro Georgia","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133144909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
