    The Repression of the Armenian Repatriates During the Stalin Era

    By Armine Kundakjian


    GLENDALE, CA On Thursday, May 22, 2014, at 7 pm, Armine Kundakjian will
    present The Repression of The Armenian Repatriates During the Stalin Era
    at the Glendale Central Library Auditorium, 222 East Harvard Street in

    The Repression of The Armenian Repatriates During the Stalin Era is a
    scientific study detailing the fates of a portion of the 42,000 Armenian
    repatriates who were persecuted during 1920-1953. The book is based on
    information extracted from the National Archives of Armenia. It focuses
    on individuals who emigrated to Armenia from abroad and who were
    subsequently victimized. An audio CD accompanying this work contains
    oral histories of three survivors.

    Armine Carapetian Koundakjian was born in Iran. Since 1991 she has
    created several auxiliary Armenian educational materials in the form of
    instructional games for students or anyone interested in learning
    Armenian. Koundakjian's books have been published in numerous languages.
    Her first book The Repression of The Armenian Repatriates During the
    Stalin Era, was published in Yerevan and was translated from Armenian
    into both Russian and English languages, while her second book, What Was
    Written in Iran During the Armenian Genocide, is available in Armenian,
    English and Farsi . Koundakjian is currently researching the lives of
    the survivors of the repression to elucidate the historic facts and the
    consequences of the repatriation.
