"They can live in the desert but nowhere else": a history of the Armenian genocide
Starting in early 1915, the Ottoman Turks began deporting and killing hundreds of thousands of Armenians in the first major genocide of the twentieth century. By the end of the First World War, the number of Armenians in what would become Turkey had been reduced by ninety percent—more than a million...

| Zusammenfassung: | Starting in early 1915, the Ottoman Turks began deporting and killing hundreds of thousands of Armenians in the first major genocide of the twentieth century. By the end of the First World War, the number of Armenians in what would become Turkey had been reduced by ninety percent—more than a million people. A century later, the Armenian Genocide remains controversial but relatively unknown, overshadowed by later slaughters and the chasm separating Turkish and Armenian versions of events. In this definitive narrative history, Ronald Suny cuts through nationalist myths, propaganda, and denial to provide an unmatched account of when, how, and why the atrocities of 1915–16 were committed.As it lost territory during the war, the Ottoman Empire was becoming a more homogenous Turkic-Muslim state, but it still contained large non-Muslim communities, including the Christian Armenians. The Young Turk leaders of the empire believed that the Armenians were internal enemies secretly allied to Russia and plotting to win an independent state. Suny shows that the great majority of Armenians were in truth loyal subjects who wanted to remain in the empire. But the Young Turks, steeped in imperial anxiety and anti-Armenian bias, became convinced that the survival of the state depended on the elimination of the Armenians. Suny is the first to explore the psychological factors as well as the international and domestic events that helped lead to genocide.Drawing on archival documents and eyewitness accounts, this is an unforgettable chronicle of a cataclysm that set a tragic pattern for a century of genocide and crimes against humanity |

Ill., Kt. txt rdacontent c rdamedia cr rdacarrier Human rights and crimes against humanity Starting in early 1915, the Ottoman Turks began deporting and killing hundreds of thousands of Armenians in the first major genocide of the twentieth century. By the end of the First World War, the number of Armenians in what would become Turkey had been reduced by ninety percent—more than a million people. A century later, the Armenian Genocide remains controversial but relatively unknown, overshadowed by later slaughters and the chasm separating Turkish and Armenian versions of events. In this definitive narrative history, Ronald Suny cuts through nationalist myths, propaganda, and denial to provide an unmatched account of when, how, and why the atrocities of 1915–16 were committed.As it lost territory during the war, the Ottoman Empire was becoming a more homogenous Turkic-Muslim state, but it still contained large non-Muslim communities, including the Christian Armenians. The Young Turk leaders of the empire believed that the Armenians were internal enemies secretly allied to Russia and plotting to win an independent state. Suny shows that the great majority of Armenians were in truth loyal subjects who wanted to remain in the empire. But the Young Turks, steeped in imperial anxiety and anti-Armenian bias, became convinced that the survival of the state depended on the elimination of the Armenians. Suny is the first to explore the psychological factors as well as the international and domestic events that helped lead to genocide.Drawing on archival documents and eyewitness accounts, this is an unforgettable chronicle of a cataclysm that set a tragic pattern for a century of genocide and crimes against humanity Geschichte 1915-1918 gnd rswk-swf Armenian massacres, 1915-1923 Armenians Armenier Culture and History of non-European Territories Ethnic relations Geschichte Asiens Global History History Politics and government Völkermord World politics History / Middle East / General bisacsh History / Middle East / Turkey & Ottoman Empire bisacsh History / Modern / 20th Century bisacsh Armenians Turkey History 20th century Genocide Psychological aspects Genocide Turkey Psychological aspects History 20th century World politics 1900-1918 Völkermord (DE-588)4063690-2 gnd rswk-swf Armenier (DE-588)4085933-2 gnd rswk-swf Osmanisches Reich (DE-588)4075720-1 gnd rswk-swf Armenier (DE-588)4085933-2 s Osmanisches Reich (DE-588)4075720-1 g Völkermord (DE-588)4063690-2 s Geschichte 1915-1918 z DE-604 Erscheint auch als Druck-Ausgabe 978-0-691-14730-7 https://doi.org/10.1515/9781400865581 Verlag URL des Erstveröffentlichers Volltext |
