KEY ELEMENTS IN THE TURKISH DENIAL OF THE ARMENIAN GENOCIDE: A Case Study of Distortion and Falsification

By Vahakn N. Dadrian

This (new) book is an impressive display of meticulous scholarship. Using incisive and cogent argumentation, as well as primary documentary evidence, especially from Turkish and German sources, Prof. Dadrian deals with and sets the record straight on such issues as, The Allegation of "Inter-Communal Clashes;" The Fallacy of the Argument of Armenian Rebellion; The Utter Fiction of the Claim of Relocation; The Juxtaposition and Equating of Armenian Losses with Turkish Warfare Losses; Hitler, the Holocaust, the Nuremberg Trials and the Armenian Genocide; Raphael Lemkin, International Law and the Armenian Genocide; The Relevance and Significance of the US Archives; The Crusade Against American Ambassador Morgenthau, and many other topics. This is a compact work intended to confront and expose the fallacy of all the principal features of the Turkish denial syndrome. As such, it is bound to remain a potent weapon in the fight for truth and justice for a very long time.
