The Myth and Reality of “Return” — Diaspora in the “Homeland”

Sossie Kasbarian · 2015

Catalogue summary

Kasbarian examines Armenian diasporans who relocate to Armenia for varying periods and describes their experiences as a form of sojourning between visitor and migrant. The article connects these choices to changing ideas of homeland, mobility, and belonging after the Soviet era.

Why this matters

It gives readers a precise way to discuss return and relocation without treating the Armenian diaspora as a uniform community with a single relationship to Armenia.
