Legislating Reality and Politicizing History - Contextualizing Armenian Claims of Genocide - Hardcover
Synopsis
A stirring critique of the Armenian campaign This in-depth study of Armenian identity deconstructs the highly politicized nature of „Armenian Genocide“ campaign and demonstrates that it has little to do with historical realities. It also highlights major international and domestic factors that inform and drive the campaign. In doing so, the author conclusively shows how the campaign's wanton use of the term „genocide“ for political purposes actively undermines international legal norms and negatively affects both Turkey's and Armenia's international relations.
