Abstract
The book examines the relationships among the Armenian diaspora, constitutions, and political systems in twelve countries in the Middle East, Africa, and eastern Mediterranean which have significant Armenian populations. Within this framework, the book analyzes minority rights, cultural rights, freedom of press, speech, and religion as well as citizenship, residence status, immigration and emigration, and personal status laws related to marriage, divorce, and inheritance. At the same time, the book considers the histories of each of the constitutions, the contexts in which they were drafted, and the respective governments which relate to those constitutions, while analyzing the contexts in which Armenians, and other religious and ethnic minorities, relate to those constitutions and pertinent laws. The book also analyzes various aspects of diaspora Armenians’ relationships with Armenian institutions as well as the people and institutions that comprise the dominant cultures of the countries, in which Armenians live.
