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."
