A Question of Genocide
One hundred years after the deportations and mass murder of Armenians, Greeks, Assyrians, and other peoples in the final years of the Ottoman Empire, the history of the Armenian genocide is a victim of historical distortion, state-sponsored falsification, and deep divisions between Armenians and Turks. Working together for the first time, Turkish, Armenian, and other scholars present here a compelling reconstruction of what happened and why. This volume gathers the most up-to-date scholarship on Armenian genocide, looking at how the event has been written about in Western and Turkish historiographies; what was happening on the eve of the catastrophe; portraits of the perpetrators; detailed accounts of the massacres; how the event has been perceived in both local and international contexts, including World War I; and reflections on the broader implications of what happened then. The result is a comprehensive work that moves beyond nationalist master narratives and offers a more complete understanding of this tragic event.

Remembering and Recounting the Cold War
Perceptions and images of the Cold War as they appear in textbooks, in the classroom but also in public and in the scientific discourse are topic of this volume "Remembering and Recounting the Cold War – Commonly Shared History?". These perceptions and images are particularly interesting because they are part of the communicative memory and are thus in the process of undergoing change. It is also the task of history didactics, here understood as a science concerned with investigating, theorizing on and staging the way of how people and societies deal with history and memories, to describe, to analyze and to interpret such moldings of teaching cultures, memory cultures and, of course, individual and collective views of this era.
Model Citizens of the State
Model Citizens of the State: The Jews of Turkey during the Multi-Party Period is about the history of the Turkish Jews from 1950 to present. By using unpublished primary sources as well as secondary sources, the book describes the struggle of Turkish Jews for the application of their constitutional rights, their fight against anti-Semitism and the indifferent attitude of the Turkish establishment to these problems. Finally, it describes Turkish Jewish leadership's involvement in the lobbying efforts on behalf of the Turkish Republic against the acceptance of resolutions in the U.S. Congress recognizing the Armenian Genocide.
Kudüs Nasıl Düştü?
Birinci Dünya savaşı başladığında Osmanlı Devleti’nin coğrafyası, İngiltere’nin Avrupa Asya ve Afrika’da bulunan sömürge topraklarını bölüyor, Rusya’nın sıcak denizlere inme yollarını engelliyordu. Osmanlı İmparatorluğu, dünya hâkimiyeti için mücadele eden İngiltere, Fransa, Rusya ve Almanya’nın çıkar alanlarını sınırlandırıyordu. Doğrudan doğruya bu devletlerin hedefi konumundaydı. Aynı zamanda Emperyalist devletlerin kan akıttıkları, can verdikleri petrol yataklarının büyük bir kısmı Osmanlı Devletinin coğrafyası üzerinde idi. Orta Doğu Petrollerini ele geçirmek için planlar yapan İngiltere “Dünyanın ilk Petrol Savaşı”nı çıkarmanın, Osmanlı savaşa girse de girmese de en azından Arapları ayaklandırarak Orta Doğu’yu ele geçirmeyi çoktan planlamıştı.
20. Yüzyılda Türkiye-Batı İlişkileri
Türk tarih ve siyaset bilimi literatüründe “Batı” kavramının tanımı ve sınırları ile ilgili farklı yorumlar bulunmaktadır. Bu eserde Türkiye merkezli bir perspektif ile bakıldığında Batı olarak Avrupa ve Amerika’yı kapsayan bir alan dikkate alınmıştır. Türklerin Batı dünyası ile münasebetleri çok eski tarihlere dayanmaktadır. Bununla birlikte Anadolu coğrafyasının yurt edinilişi ile ilişkilerin sıklık ve seviyesi üst düzey bir noktaya gelmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti’nin erken dönemlerinde Balkan coğrafyasından hareketle Viyana sınırlarına kadar fetihler gerçekleştirilmiş; siyasi, sosyal ve ekonomik münasebetler tesis edilmiştir. Osmanl...
A Shameful Act
A landmark assessment of Turkish culpability in the Armenian genocide, the first history of its kind by a Turkish historian In 1915, under the cover of a world war, some one million Armenians were killed through starvation, forced marches, forced exile, and mass acts of slaughter. Although Armenians and world opinion have held the Ottoman powers responsible, Turkey has consistently rejected any claim of intentional genocide. Now, in a pioneering work of excavation, Turkish historian Taner Akçam has made extensive and unprecedented use of Ottoman and other sources to produce a scrupulous charge sheet against the Turkish authorities. The first scholar of any nationality to have mined the sign...
