    www. utopiana.am [email protected] Baghramyan 50 G / 8 ,Yerevan, Armenia 00374 [10] 261035, 00374 [94] 355185 Utopiana.am invites you to October 8-12, 2012 PUBLIC TALKS Yerevan a participatory art and culture events program As a part of SPACES caravan PUBLIC TALKS brings together artists, curators, researchers, architects and other cultural workers along with civil society groups and students from Armenia, Georgia, Moldova and Ukraine in order to foster networking, self-education, social research and policy debates in the region. The program consists of several components: artistic interventions in various public spaces, talks and presentations by Armenian art and cultural critics taking place in context-specific venues, study visits to independent cultural institutions and a final cultural policy debate formatted as a panel discussion that will follow up the events and happenings program. The overwhelming tyranny of neoliberal, ‘free’ market economy, ‘new capitalist order with Asian values’ (in terms of its suppression of democratic freedoms) as Zizek coints it and its consequences in social and political realms both in Armenia and globally (rise of the new right, ecological nationalism, widespread protest movements, claims for the recuperation of public spaces and wider social benefits) stress the importance of rethinking a period or rather a condition, where the foundations of contemporary situation of rapid commercialization and social disenfranchisement were laid. Heavy industrialization, ideological totality, claims for new types of social and physical environments, failed system of both state-planned and free market economies, these are all the bitter fruits of Modern- ism/modern condition that the contemporary society has to cope with.

  • Residential Environmental Conditions on Housing Estates in Yerevan
    Hungarian Geographical Bulletin 62 (1) (2013) 121–130. Residential environmental conditions on housing estates in Yerevan Tigran SARGSYAN1 Abstract Most housing estates of Yerevan, the capital of Armenia were constructed during com- munism, mostly between the 1960s and 1980s. The residential environment was shaped according to the typical approaches and styles of the Soviet urban construction: houses of the same type can be found almost in all 15 capitals of the former USSR. The construction of the so-called “elite” housing stock appeared in diff erent parts of Yerevan in the 2000s. However, due to higher prices, those houses are not widely available. Therefore, housing estates of the communist period still remain the only possible housing for the majority of the population in Yerevan. Nowadays, the residential environment on those housing estates has to face diff erent kinds of problems and challenges: communal, infrastructural, environmental, sanitary, esthetical, etc. In the present paper the author makes an att empt to provide an overview on the residential environment of large housing estates in Yerevan based on survey data and fi eld work. Keywords: housing estates, residential environment, housing stock, communal services, Yerevan Introduction Yerevan, the capital and the largest city of Armenia is located at the north- eastern edge of Ararat Valley, on the banks of Hrazdan River which originates from Lake Sevan. The territory of Yerevan is 227 sq km (0.8% of the territory of Armenia). It is noteworthy to mention that Yerevan is situated at the altitude of 865–1,400 meters above sea level. The population fi gure of the city as of January 1, 2012 is 1.127 million which equals to 34.4% of the total population and about 53.8% of the urban population of Armenia (Yerevan, RA capital in fi gures, 2012).
