Book Synopsis Reforging a Forgotten History: Iraq and the Assyrians in the Twentieth Century by : Sargon Donabed
Download or read book Reforging a Forgotten History: Iraq and the Assyrians in the Twentieth Century written by Sargon Donabed and published by Edinburgh University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-01 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who are the Assyrians and what role did they play in shaping modern Iraq? Were they simply bystanders, victims of collateral damage who played a passive role in the history of Iraq? And how have they negotiated their position throughout various periods of Iraq's state-building processes? This book details the narrative and history of Iraq in the 20th century and reinserts the Assyrian experience as an integral part of Iraq's broader contemporary historiography. It is the first comprehensive account to contextualize this native people's experience alongside the developmental processes of the modern Iraqi state. Using primary and secondary data, this book offers a nuanced exploration of the dynamics that have affected and determined the trajectory of the Assyrians' experience in 20th century Iraq.
Book Synopsis The Genocide of the Christian Populations in the Ottoman Empire and its Aftermath (1908-1923) by : Taner Akçam
Download or read book The Genocide of the Christian Populations in the Ottoman Empire and its Aftermath (1908-1923) written by Taner Akçam and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the twilight years of the Ottoman Empire, the ethnic tensions between the minority populations within the empire led to the administration carrying out a systematic destruction of the Armenian people. This not only brought 2,000 years of Armenian civilisation within Anatolia to an end but was accompanied by the mass murder of Syriac and Greek Orthodox Christians. Containing a selection of papers presented at The Genocide of the Christian Populations of the Ottoman Empire and Its Aftermath (1908–1923) international conference, hosted by the Chair for Pontic Studies at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, this book draws on unpublished archival material and an innovative historiographical approach to analyze events and their legacy in comparative perspective. In order to understand the historical context of the Ottoman Genocide, it is important to study, apart from the Armenian case, the fate of the Greek and Assyrian peoples, providing a more comprehensive understanding of the complexity of the situation. This volume is primarily a research contribution but should also be valued as a supplementary text that would provide secondary reading for undergraduates and postgraduate students.
Book Synopsis The Path to Assyria by : Afram Yakoub
Download or read book The Path to Assyria written by Afram Yakoub and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-24 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has the Assyrian nation not gained its freedom despite a hundred years of struggle? Why has the Assyrian movement failed to make headway and what is the reason for its paralysis and weakness? The issue is not new but as old as the movement itself. Several Assyrian intellectuals have pondered this conundrum. A lot has happened during the over one hundred years that have passed since the emergence of the Assyrian national movement. The steady decline of the people has continued unabated and given new generations renewed reasons for revisiting the same question. When viewing Assyrian history through new perspectives we can find a pattern that solves the conundrum and leads on to a future that we had lost hope of long ago.

Book Synopsis The Assyrian Genocide by : Hannibal Travis
Download or read book The Assyrian Genocide written by Hannibal Travis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-20 with total page 261 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a brief period, the attention of the international community has focused once again on the plight of religious minorities in Iraq, Syria, and Turkey. In particular, the abductions and massacres of Yezidis and Assyrians in the Sinjar, Mosul, Nineveh Plains, Baghdad, and Hasakah regions in 2007–2015 raised questions about the prevention of genocide. This book, while principally analyzing the Assyrian genocide of 1914–1925 and its implications for the culture and politics of the region, also raises broader questions concerning the future of religious diversity in the Middle East. It gathers and analyzes the findings of a broad spectrum of historical and scholarly works on Christian identities in the Middle East, genocide studies, international law, and the politics of the late Ottoman Empire, as well as the politics of the Ottomans' British and Russian rivals for power in western Asia and the eastern Mediterranean basin. A key question the book raises is whether the fate of the Assyrians maps onto any of the concepts used within international law and diplomatic history to study genocide and group violence. In this light, the Assyrian genocide stands out as being several times larger, in both absolute terms and relative to the size of the affected group, than the Srebrenica genocide, which is recognized by Turkey as well as by international tribunals and organizations. Including its Armenian and Greek victims, the Ottoman Christian Genocide rivals the Rwandan, Bengali, and Biafran genocides. The book also aims to explore the impact of the genocide period of 1914–1925 on the development or partial unraveling of Assyrian group cohesion, including aspirations to autonomy in the Assyrian areas of northern Iraq, northwestern Iran, and southeastern Turkey. Scholars from around the world have collaborated to approach these research questions by reference to diplomatic and political archives, international legal materials, memoirs, and literary works.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From 1894 to 1924 three waves of violence swept across Anatolia, targeting the region’s Christian minorities. Benny Morris and Dror Ze’evi’s impeccably researched account is the first to show that the three were actually part of a single, continuing, and intentional effort to wipe out Anatolia’s Christian population and create a pure Muslim nation.
Book Synopsis Forgotten Genocides by : Rene Lemarchand
Download or read book Forgotten Genocides written by Rene Lemarchand and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike the Holocaust, Rwanda, Cambodia, or Armenia, scant attention has been paid to the human tragedies analyzed in this book. From German Southwest Africa (now Namibia), Burundi, and eastern Congo to Tasmania, Tibet, and Kurdistan, from the mass killings of the Roms by the Nazis to the extermination of the Assyrians in Ottoman Turkey, the mind reels when confronted with the inhuman acts that have been consigned to oblivion. Forgotten Genocides: Oblivion, Denial, and Memory gathers eight essays about genocidal conflicts that are unremembered and, as a consequence, understudied. The contributors, scholars in political science, anthropology, history, and other fields, seek to restore these mass killings to the place they deserve in the public consciousness. Remembrance of long forgotten crimes is not the volume's only purpose—equally significant are the rich quarry of empirical data offered in each chapter, the theoretical insights provided, and the comparative perspectives suggested for the analysis of genocidal phenomena. While each genocide is unique in its circumstances and motives, the essays in this volume explain that deliberate concealment and manipulation of the facts by the perpetrators are more often the rule than the exception, and that memory often tends to distort the past and blame the victims while exonerating the killers. Although the cases discussed here are but a sample of a litany going back to biblical times, Forgotten Genocides offers an important examination of the diversity of contexts out of which repeatedly emerge the same hideous realities.

Book Synopsis Christian responses to Islam by : Anthony O'Mahony
Download or read book Christian responses to Islam written by Anthony O'Mahony and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the aftermath of 9/11 there has been much talk of a need to engage on a meaningful level with Islam, but where do we begin and what is the right approach? This book, available in paperback for the first time, looks at case studies from around the world in order to explore how Christian groups, sometimes as minorities and sometimes as the majority, engage with their Muslim neighbours in the search for a peaceful society. Some of the initiatives are politically motivated, others run by Church authorities and a number are community based, but all offer different approaches to a variety of situations that are encountered in Christian-Islamic dialogue. This is the first time that global strategies for dialogue have been published in one book by a series of leading academics. Whilst previous publications have concentrated on a particular geographical area, usually the Middle East or Europe, this book casts a wider net and considers issues such as the rise of radical Islam in post-Soviet states, Indonesian immigration in Australia and the spread of Islam amongst the Black South Africans after the fall of apartheid. Scholars and all those interested in politics, current affairs, religion or peace studies will find this book essential reading as a guidebook to the state of contemporary Christian-Islamic relations.
