abstract = {The article presents an analysis of the origins of the nation-building in Azerbaijan focusing on the discourses
of nation-building, role of religion in defining national identity, and multiculturalism. It argues that Azerbaijanism
embraces a civic understanding of citizenship identity acknowledging Turkish roots with a particular
value and importance to secularism, multiculturalism and tolerance. Azerbaijan consolidated both
its nation and state-building processes after the Second Karabakh War in 2022 and is in the process of redefining
its place in a geo-political context challenged by security concerns over the last decades.},
