Modern Armenia People, Nation, State

Gerard Libaridian

 

Modern Armenia reviews Armenian politics and political thinking from the mid-nineteenth century to the present, and the evolution of Armenians from peoplehood

to statehood. Written by a key governmental advisor in the early years of Armenian independence, this book analyzes the internal dynamics of the revolutionary movement, the genocide, the Armenian diaspora, its recent independence, and the relationship of these developments to processes in the Ottoman/Turkish, Rus-sian, and Western states.

 

Starting with an overview of Armenian history from mid-nineteenth century to the

1970s, Modern Armenia proceeds to explore the dynamics that led up to and

shaped the modern republic. The book is divided into four parts: Understanding

the ideologies adopted by the Armenian revolutionary movement in the late nineteenth-century Ottoman Empire; Ideology of the Young Turks; Complexities of dealing with the history of relations between Armenians and Kurds and Armenians and Turks; and Overview of Armenia and Armenians during the past two decades, including the rebirth of independent Armenia, its foreign and security policy options, and its relations with the Diaspora. Modern Armenia will be of interest to students of Armenian history, independence movements, the dissolution of the Soviet empire, and foreign relations.

 

Gerard J. Libaridian is currently Alex Manoogian Visiting Professor of Modern Armenian History at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor and was co-founder and director of the Zoryan Institute in Cambridge from 1982 to 1990. He was advisor, then senior advisor, of foreign and security policy to former president of Armenia Levon Ter-Petrossian from 1991 to 1997 and was First Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs (1993-1994).
