Connection without Engagement: Paradoxes of North American Armenian Return Migration

Daniel Fittante · 2017

Catalogue summary

This research examines North American Armenians who relocate to Armenia and the tensions between ancestral connection and disengagement from local practices. It situates their experiences in return-migration scholarship while emphasizing the role of ethnicity and imagination.

Why this matters

It helps readers approach diaspora return as an ongoing and sometimes difficult social relationship rather than a symbolic endpoint.
