Abstract:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The end of the nineteenth century saw increased interest in documenting and understanding local handicrafts of the South Caucasus. Handicrafts in this context was understood as part of the local economy that supported the livelihoods of the population. Official narratives, however, painted a bleak picture about the state of handicraft carpet weaving. The narrative of decline was again introduced in the early Soviet period, when the carpet emerged as an important source of hard currency. The presentation will discuss the ways in which the narratives of decline and revival were constructed. It will examine how they informed decisions to render support to the industry, paying attention to networks of trade and commerce within and beyond the South Caucasus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
