Description
Summary:In spite of the ossification of the competing views of both Ankara and Yerevan, interest in and research on the Armenian Genocide and related experiences continue. A swelling wave of scholarship on the violent years between the Balkan Wars and the establishment of the Turkish Republic and of Soviet Armenia has taken shape, led by a growing number of fine scholars. Through the spadework and activism of individuals such as Taner Akçam, Halil Berktay, Ronald Suny, Fatma Müge Göçek, Dikran Kaligian, Ayhan Akhtar, Fuat Dündar, and Hans Lukas Kieser, historians are beginning to confront the full ramifications of the Ottoman government's decision during the First World War to suppress or liquidate a series of populations in Anatolia.
