I don't agree with this thesis
of Prof. Khachig Tölölyan

in his paper "Elites and Institutions in the Armenian Transnation"
Paper given to the conference on Transnational Migration
Comparative Perspectives.
Princeton University
30 June-1 July 2001


"
Within this structure, cultural producers who create works that provide a positive representation of diasporic life, and that are welcomed by the gatekeepers of the larger representational regimes of the host society, are ardently recruited by diasporic elites.
When they withhold their allegiance, as aesthetic
producers often do, their attendance and support for events organized by specific institutions is
nevertheless sought and publicized, both because it can facilitate fundraising
and also because diasporic elites usually recognize the value of cultural legitimization."

Overheard at New York launch of my artist¹s book about Yerevan writers
(said by a NY diasporan Armenian):

" I would NEVER buy that book;
it is a waste of paper when Armenia
so badly needs trees.
We should spend money on that."
