Chapter 4. Constructing Bonds to the Homeland – Diasporic Culture of Philanthropy

Tsypylma Darieva · 2023

Catalogue summary

Using Kirk Kerkorian's financing of the Armenia-Artsakh highway as an opening case, the chapter investigates how diaspora philanthropy creates material and symbolic bonds between Armenian-Americans and a homeland imagined across borders.

Why this matters

The infrastructure example makes diaspora giving legible as cultural practice rather than a simple transfer of funds, while documenting a consequential Artsakh connection.
