The Armenian Genocide
The Armenian Genocide was one of the greatest atrocities of the twentieth century, an episode in which up to 1.5 million Armenians lost their lives. In this major new history, the renowned historian Raymond Kevorkian provides an authoritative account of the origins, events and consequences of the years 1915 and 1916. He considers the role that the Armenian Genocide played in the construction of the Turkish nation state and Turkish identity, as well as exploring the ideologies of power, rule and state violence. Crucially, he examines the consequences of the violence against the Armenians, the implications of deportations and attempts to bring those who committed the atrocities to justice. Kevorkian offers a detailed and meticulous record, providing an authoritative analysis of the events and their impact upon the Armenian community itself, as well as the development of the Turkish state. This important book will serve as an indispensable resource to historians of the period, as well as those wishing to understand the history of genocidal violence more generally.

Collective and State Violence in Turkey
Turkey has gone through significant transformations over the last century—from the Ottoman Empire and Young Turk era to the Republic of today—but throughout it has demonstrated troubling continuities in its encouragement and deployment of mass violence. In particular, the construction of a Muslim-Turkish identity has been achieved in part by designating “internal enemies” at whom public hatred can be directed. This volume provides a wide range of case studies and historiographical reflections on the alarming recurrence of such violence in Turkish history, as atrocities against varied ethnic-religious groups from the nineteenth century to today have propelled the nation’s very sense of itself.
Génocide des Arméniens (Le)
Entre 1915 et 1916, ce sont près de 1 500 000 Arméniens ottomans qui perdent la vie. Parmi les innombrables violences perpétrées au cours de la Première Guerre mondiale, leur extermination constitue l’épisode le plus sanglant touchant des populations civiles. Voici, pour la première fois, non seulement l’histoire, mais aussi la « géographie » exhaustive du génocide, région par région. Cette étude rigoureuse et complète permet de comprendre la genèse de ces crimes de masse, aboutissement d’un long processus au cours duquel l’élimination physique d’une partie de sa propre population a été conçue comme la condition nécessaire à la construction de l’État-nation...
