Summary/Abstract: In 2018, Armenia’s velvet revolution brought about a peaceful transition when it looked like open conflict would result. The revolution was welcomed by the majority of the Armenian people but its nature and its legacy have been disputed. This has occurred during the period of misinformation and disinformation. This papers uses analytical tools derived from the neo-Gramscian approach to analyse the events of the revolution and its aftermath with a view to understanding its impact and how to rebuild society from the divisions that have beset it beyond ideology.
