New Diasporas for an Old Diaspora: Armenian Hybrid Communities in the 21st Century

New Diasporas for an Old Diaspora: Armenian Hybrid Communities in the 21st Century This one-day symposium brings together international scholars to examine Armenian diasporic formations that have emerged over the past fifty years. Moving beyond the "classic diaspora" model rooted in the post-genocide era, it explores how layered, hybrid, and transnational communities — shaped by secondary migrations, geopolitical shifts, and new global circuits — are reconfiguring Armenian life today. 📍 Humanities Gateway 1030, University of California, Irvine, CA 92697 📅 Saturday, May 2, 2026 ⏰ 9:30 AM 🔗 Register: form.jotform.com/260886492363165 🅿️ Reserve Parking: apps.parking.uci.edu/parkbyplate
