Armenia and the Diaspora in the Post-Truth 21st Century
EVN Report podcast, 6 June 2017
Arto Vaun sits down with scholar and sociologist Hratch Tchilingirian to discuss Armenian-Diaspora relations and Armenian identity in a post-truth context.
Türkiye’de yeni Ermeni Patriğinin seçilmesi süreci, geleneksel devlet dayatmaları, idari zorluklar ve Ermeni toplumuna yönelik keyfi muamelelerle karşı karşıya. Durum geçtiğimiz haftalarda Patrikhanedeki üst düzey din adamlarının meseleyi bölücü bir büyük krize dönüştüren şahsi çatışmaları ve hırsları nedeniyle daha da kötüleşti.
The election process of a new Armenian Patriarch in Turkey faces the customary state-imposed restrictions, administrative hurdles and arbitrary treatment of the Armenian community. In recent weeks, the situation has been exacerbated by personality clashes and ambitions of the high ranking clergymen at the Patriarchate, who have turned a problem into a divisive major crisis.

Since the establishment of the Turkish Republic, state discrimination against the Armenian community—and generally the non-Muslim minorities—has been institutionalized and systematically used towards the detriment of the target community. This article provides a discussion of these issues and the processes of state and societal ‘othering’ of the Armenians in Turkey, with a particular focus on the impact of such policies and public discourses on the current situation of the community. It then provides an analysis of the internal dynamics of the Armenian community itself. The discussion highlights several sociological concepts that are useful to the understanding and analysis of the Turkish state’s and society’s treatment of the Armenians in Turkey today—or what the economists would call the stresses and distortions in the system.
