BEDOUIAN MEDAL On September 1, 2000, the Armenian Numismatic Society presented Dr. Paul Z. Bedoukian with a gold and silver medal, having his image on one side, and with the Society seal on the other side. The obverse portrait was designed by artist/sculptor Hagop Ishkhanian. The reverse Armenian Numismatic Society logo was originally created by Y. T. Nercessian and first appeared on the cover of the Armenian Numismatic Journal in 1975. This is the first medal struck by the Armenian Numismatic Society since its establishment in 1971. Dr. Bedoukian produced a steady stream of scholarly papers on Armenian coinages which were published in leading numismatic and Armenological periodicals in Europe and the USA. Gradually, he became recognized as the world's foremost authority on Armenian numismatics. His many books, including Coinage of Cilician Armenia (New York, 1962), Roman Coins and Medallions Relating to Armenia (Vienna, 1971), Coinage of the Artaxiads of Armenia (London, 1978), Selected Numismatic Studies (Los Angeles, 1981), and Coinage of the Armenian Kingdoms of Sophene and Commagene. (New York, 1983 and Los Angeles, 1985), continue to be relied upon today as standard reference manuals in their respective fields. Dr. Bedoukian spearheaded a movement to strike Armenian medals and underwrote most of the expenditure for this purpose. These include the St. Vartan Cathedral consecration medal (1968), Komitas Vartabed centennial medal (1969), Armenian Church in America 75th anniver- sary medal (1973), and Armenian General Benevolent Union 75th anniversary medal (1981). Dr. Bedoukian never sold a single Armenian coin. Rather, he has donated about 10,000 Armenian coins, as well as important collections of Armenian antiquities and rare books, to more than twenty American, Armenian, and European museums. limited A number of 0.999 fine one troy ounce silver medals, 1.5 inches diameter (39 mm), are made available to the public for purchase by the Armenian Numismatic Society.

  • Affirming Genocide Knowledge Through Rituals
    6 Affirming Genocide Knowledge through Rituals Parts I and II of this book examined the emergence of repertoires of knowledge regarding the Armenian genocide through social interaction, objectified thought processes, bearing witness, and the involvement of knowledge entrepreneurs. We saw how knowledge generated through these processes took radically different shapes as it became sedimented within each of two distinct carrier groups, Arme- nians and Turks. Oppositional worldviews and associated knowledge reper toires are not unique to this case, of course. We find them, for example, when those who recognize the role of human action in global warming encounter others who see a Chinese conspiracy at work, aimed at harming the U.S. economy. Or again, when those who know that liberal or social democracy will secure a prosperous and secure future disagree with followers of populist authoritarian leaders and parties. The question arises of how each collectivity deals with the challenges posed by the other side. Now, in part III, we encounter two strategies commonly deployed in struggles over knowledge. While chapters 7 and 8 address conflictual engagement with the opposing side in the realms of politics and law, and chapter 9 explores counterpro- ductive effects of denial in an age of human rights hegemony, the present chapter examines the use of elaborate public rituals toward the reaffirmation of genocide knowledge within each of the contending collectivities. We owe early social-scientific insights into the role of rituals in social life to Émile Durkheim. In his book The Elementary Forms of Religious Life, Durkheim ([1912] 2001) tells us about the ability of rituals to sanctify objects and charge sym- bols that represent them with a special energy.

  • Risk Assessment Chapter 6
    Chapter 6 Risk Assessment Chapter 6 Risk Assessment 6.1 Damage of Buildings The building damage functions for multi-story residential buildings, for low-rise individual houses and for schools and hospitals are made mainly based on the damage by Spitak earthquake in 1988. Therefore, the seismic resistance of the buildings in 1988 is considered tacitly in creating the damage function; however, already over 20 years has passed from 1988. Most building in Yerevan has been constructed before 1991 and the aging effect to the seismic resistance of the buildings is a matter of concern. Also the maintenance of the residential buildings after 1991 is said to became poor than before. The effects of these issues are necessary to be included for realistic risk assessment. The quantitative effects are evaluated by expert judgment in discussing with Armenian researchers and concluded that the damage ratio is increased 10% for aging effect and 10% for poor maintenance issue. As a result, the damage functions in Figures 5.3-17, 5.3-19 and 5.3-20 are multiplied by 1.2 to calculate the damage of buildings. 6.1.1 Multi-story residential buildings Number of heavily damaged multi-story residential buildings per grid of 250m x 250m against two scenario earthquakes is shown in Figure 6.1-1. 6.1.2 Individual house Number of heavily damaged individual houses per grid of 250m x 250m is shown in Figure 6.1-2. 6.1.3 Summary of damage of buildings 1) Damages of multi-story buildings and individual houses at each district are summarized in Table 6.1-1.

    In the Footsteps of Economic Anthropology. Trade As a Socio-Cultural Phenomenon in Post- Soviet Armenia Khoren Grigoryan Applicant at the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnography of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Armenia, researcher at the National Museum of Armenian Ethnography [email protected] ABSTRACT The aim of this paper is to explore the socio-cultural transformations1 of the already independent Republic of Armenia in the early years of the Soviet Union’s collapse. The first part of the paper is devoted to the theoretical literature which is the essential material for this article. The second part of the paper represents the research itself and observes the process of commercialization of the society in post-Soviet Armenia.

Moreover, the spontaneous emergence of trading places in urban culture will be a matter of an important consideration. The third part of the paper includes the research about street trade and bazaar The paper also includes the conclusion and the bibliography. Key words: post-Soviet transformation, bazaar (market), goods barter, commercialization of the society, post-Soviet trade. 1. INTRODUCTION The literature about trade and commercialization of society is diverse in terms of the methods of economic anthropology, Traditional Ethnography and Cultural Anthropology. M.
