An American geographer and specialist on population change in the former Soviet republics presents a study of the first post-Soviet census of Armenia. The author reviews major national- and regional-level changes in population size, urban/rural distribution, and ethnic affinity, by focusing on disruptive effects of the 1988 earthquake on the last Soviet census enumeration (1989), which hinders temporal comparisons. Also included in his study is the largely economically based mass migration to other former Soviet republics (chiefly to Russia) and the United States; an internal territorial reorganization in 1995; and migration streams of Armenian displaced persons and refugees as well as emigration of Azeris as a consequence of the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict noted in some detail. Journal of Economic Literature, Classification Numbers: J11, O18, R23. 3 figures, 2 tables, 60 references
