In spite of the fact that more pragmatic revolutionaries attempted to convince the Armenian community that the Balkan model would not work for the Armenians because of demographic and geopolitical differences, the Armenian struggle for inde- pendence from the Ottoman Empire was waged in a way that was similar to the Balkan model. There is strong reason to believe that if the Armenians had had stron- ger British and Russian backing and constituted a slightly higher percentage of the population in the region of Eastern Anatolia that an independent Armenia would have emerged in Eastern Anatolia and Cilicia much in the same manner that an independent Bulgaria, Serbia, and Montenegro emerged in the Balkans.

  • Institutions in Diaspora: the Case of Armenian Community in Russia
    Institutions in Diaspora: The Case of Armenian Community in Russia WPTC-01-09 Marina Oussatcheva Doctoral Student in Social Anthropology Institute of Social & Cultural Anthropology, University of Oxford [email protected] 1 Institutions in Diaspora: The Case of Armenian Community in Russia Introduction The disintegration of the Soviet Union made visible the problems of diasporas, which were not on the agenda of the social sciences during Soviet times. The policy of the state was characterized by the guiding principle of erasing any national differences. People were united by the institution of Soviet citizenship − the characteristic universal for peoples of all nationalities within USSR. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many representatives of different ethnic groups found themselves facing a formerly unknown problem − that of national self-identification. They had to find their own niche in the socio-cultural environment of their host-states,. to become conscious of their minority status, compared with titular nations, to pass through the difficult stages of social adaptation in order to find themselves in the new socio-economic and political situation while trying at the same time to maintain connections with their historic homeland and preserve their national uniqueness. Social sciences in Russia are unfortunately not yet able to offer any serious research in this field. Meanwhile, the significance of the problem is growing, as influence of diasporas on the host states is increasing and some diasporas are becoming influential in solving not only socio-cultural, but also economic and political, problems. This paper focuses on the analysis of institutions and agents in a diaspora community.
