This comprehensive single-volume work examines the causes, events,
and lasting consequences of the Armenian Genocide. Despite the
passage of a century, the Armenian Genocide continues to have
substantial impact around the world. A century after the
devastating mass killing of the Ottoman Armenians during the
Armenian Genocide-considered one of the first genocides of the 20th
century-this catastrophe continues to raise important and troubling
issues, particularly given the Turkish state's ongoing denial.
Indeed, much of the continuing instability and conflict in the
Caucasus is rooted in the Armenian Genocide. Drawing upon diverse
academic disciplines and written by a single author who is a
leading expert on the subject, The Armenian Genocide: A Century of
Remembrance and Denial explores the profound short- and long-term
impacts of the 1915 Armenian Genocide. The chapters document how
this genocide created a scattered and traumatized Armenian Diaspora
and imposed major stresses upon the tiny and vulnerable landlocked
Armenian state. The book addresses difficult topics such as the
challenge of the "double death" of the victims as a result of the
ongoing Turkish state denial. This volume provides an analysis of
the Armenian Genocide from several analytical perspectives, thereby
giving readers a more comprehensive understanding of this
enormously important subject. * Includes an introduction that
explains the origins and meaning of the term "genocide" * Presents
a comprehensive account of the cause, events, and consequences of
the Armenian Genocide * Addresses the ongoing issue of conflict and
risk of war in the region * Underscores the importance of learning
lessons from the Armenian Genocide to prevent future genocides
