Three Meanings of "Diaspora," Exemplified among South Asian Religions
Steven Vertovec · 1997
Catalogue summary
Vertovec distinguishes diaspora as a social form, consciousness, and cultural production while tracing how dispersed communities maintain ties across states. Its conceptual discussion names Armenians among the historical cases that shaped the category alongside other diasporic populations.
Why this matters
It supplies a careful vocabulary for reading Armenian diasporic identity alongside comparative work, without reducing distinct histories to a single migration model.
