The Jewish Diaspora in a Comparative and Theoretical Perspective
William Safran · 2005
Catalogue summary
This theoretical article develops criteria for distinguishing diaspora from migration more generally, using the Jewish experience as a starting point while discussing Armenians and other communities. It emphasizes homeland memory, minority status, transnational institutions, and cultural continuity.
Why this matters
It helps readers evaluate how Armenian diaspora fits—and sometimes exceeds—standard definitions of dispersed community.
