Abstract

The Fort Mims massacre changed the course of American history in many ways, not the least of which was the ensuing rise of one Andrew Jackson to the national stage. The unprecedented Indian victory over the encroaching Americans who were bent on taking their lands and destroying their culture horrified many and injured the young nation's pride. Tragedies such as this one have always rallied Americans to a common cause: a single-minded determination to destroy the enemy and avenge the fallen. The August 30, 1813, massacre at Fort Mims, involving hundreds of dead men, women, and children, w

Abstract

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 Akam 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 significant evidence& in Turkish military and court records, parliamentary minutes, letters, and eyewitness accounts& Akam follows the chain of events leading up to the killing and then reconstructs its systematic orchestration by coordinated departments of the Ottoman state, the ruling political parties, and the military. He also probes the crucial question of how Turkey succeeded in evading responsibility, pointing to competing international interests in the region, the priorities of Turkish nationalists, and the international community's inadequate attempts to bring the perpetrators to justice. As Turkey lobbies to enter the European Union, Akam's work becomes ever more important and relevant. Beyond its timeliness, 'A Shameful Act' is sure to take its lasting place as a classic and necessary work on the subject.

Abstract

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 turc. Au-delà de la mémoire, ce livre-monument invite à une réflexion sur les fondements idéologiques et culturels d'une société qui rejette son passé et ne parvient pas à assumer son histoire. --
