Taner Akçam is one of the first Turkish academics to acknowledge and discuss openly the Armenian Genocide perpetrated by the Ottoman-Turkish government in 1915. This book discusses western political policies towards the region generally, and represents the first serious scholarly attempt to understand the Genocide from a perpetrator rather than victim perspective, and to contextualize those events within Turkey's political history. By refusing to acknowledge the fact of genocide, successive Turkish governments not only perpetuate massive historical injustice, but also pose a fundamental obstacle to Turkey's democratization today.
Presents a long-overdue examination of the actions at Van, an ancient city in southeastern Anatolia, where the Armenian Revolt is believed to have been a precursor to a great massacre of the people of the East.
This book brings together information about the latest academic library building projects from across Europe. New attractive buildings and huge renovation projects are presented in this documentation which continues the tradition established by Professor Elmar Mittler (formerly Director of the State and University Library Göttingen), who was the first chairman of the LIBER Architecture Group. The publication of this book coincides with the 15th LIBER Architecture Group Seminar which will take place in Madrid in April 2010. In addition to hearing about the latest developments in planning and design and offering visits to new library buildings, the Seminar provides an occasion to debate ideas and meet colleagues from institutions across Europe. I hope that the projects in this book will provide ideas for your own work and that they will also stimulate your interest in new library architecture and the creative use of space.
