Abstract:
The presence of legal culture in the Western Armenian reality has been significantly contributed to by the political publicity reflected in Armenian periodicals and journals. In this respect, the “Eastern Press”1 published in Smyrna at the end of the 19th century, whose editor Matteos Mamuryan repeatedly commented on legal and political issues, was of exceptional importance. Its concept is based on the ideas of protection of historical and political rights of the nation, national-civilizational identity and freedom of self-government. Analyzing the legal philosophical ideas of American and Western European thinkers, Mamuryan reinterpreted them in the context of national existence and compared them with the legal views of Armenian authors.
