The Nation-State and Its Others: In Lieu of a Preface

Khachig Tölölyan · 1991

Catalogue summary

This programmatic essay frames diaspora as a way to study how collective identity, homeland, and nation are produced and contested across cultural and political life. It explicitly identifies Armenians among communities whose transnational condition complicates nation-state categories.

Why this matters

It provides a foundational conceptual vocabulary for reading Armenian diaspora studies alongside other transnational histories.
