Book excerpt: This is the smoking gun linking Talaat Pasha, the Ottoman Minister of Interior and later Grand Vizier, to the Armenian Genocide of 1915. The report was prepared for Talaat Pasha and meant for his private use. In all likelihood, it would have been destroyed, were it not for the fact that Talaat was assassinated in Berlin 1921, and his widow kept and then gave the report to a Turkish historian who eventually published it. According to Talaat's figures over 1,150,000 Armenians disappeared in the Ottoman Empire between 1915-1917. This number includes well over 100,000 Armenians who fled from the Ottoman Empire during WWI, but it does not include tens of thousands of Armenian women and children who were forcefully Islamized and absorbed into Muslim families. Talaat Pasha's Report on the Armenian Genocide also includes additional materials from his private papers showing the systematic confiscation of over 40,000 Armenian properties, surely an undercount, as "abandoned" properties confiscated by the Ottoman State cir. 1917. These records add substance to the testimonies of survivors of the Armenian Genocide and onlooker, including foreign missionaries and consular representative in the interior of Ottoman Turkey, most notably United States officials in Trebizond, Harpoot (Elazig), Mersin, Aleppo and Damascus.Much of the statistical information in Talaat's papers have been turned into colour maps for the perusal of readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first English-language biography of the de facto ruler of the late Ottoman Empire and architect of the Armenian Genocide Talaat Pasha (1874–1921) led the triumvirate that ruled the late Ottoman Empire during World War I and is arguably the father of modern Turkey. He was also the architect of the Armenian Genocide, which would result in the systematic extermination of more than a million people, and which set the stage for a century that would witness atrocities on a scale never imagined. Here is the first biography in English of the revolutionary figure who not only prepared the way for Atatürk and the founding of the republic in 1923, but who shaped the modern world as well. In this explosive book, Hans-Lukas Kieser provides a mesmerizing portrait of a man who maintained power through a potent blend of the new Turkish ethno-nationalism, the political Islam of former Sultan Abdulhamid II, and a readiness to employ radical "solutions" and violence. From Talaat's role in the Young Turk Revolution of 1908 to his exile from Turkey and assassination--a sensation in Weimar Germany—Kieser restores the Ottoman drama to the heart of world events. He shows how Talaat wielded far more power than previously realized, making him the de facto ruler of the empire. He brings wartime Istanbul vividly to life as a thriving diplomatic hub, and reveals how Talaat's cataclysmic actions would reverberate across the twentieth century. In this major work of scholarship, Kieser tells the story of the brilliant and merciless politician who stood at the twilight of empire and the dawn of the age of genocide.

Book excerpt: The book represents an earthquake in genocide studies, particularly in the field of Armenian Genocide research. A unique feature of the Armenian Genocide has been the long-standing efforts of successive Turkish governments to deny its historicity and to hide the documentary evidencesurrounding it. This book provides a major clarification of the often blurred lines between facts and truth in regard to these events. The authenticity of the killing orders signed by Ottoman Interior Minister Talat Pasha and the memoirs of the Ottoman bureaucrat Naim Efendi have been two of the most contested topics in this regard. The denialist school has long argued that these documents and memoirs were all forgeries, produced by Armenians to further their claims. Taner Akçam provides the evidence to refute the basis of these claims and demonstrates clearly why the documents can be trusted as authentic, revealing the genocidal intent of the Ottoman-Turkish government towards its Armenian population. As such, this work removes a cornerstone from the denialist edifice, and further establishes the historicity of the Armenian Genocide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the memoir of an avenger who assassinated the former Ottoman Minister of Interior Talaat Pasha in the streets of Berlin in 1921. Tehlirian was a victim of the Armenian Genocide and held Talaat Pasha responsible for the deaths of his entire family in Yerznga in Ottoman Turkey. The memoir depicts Tehlirian's witness to the Armenian Genocide of 1915, how he attempted to track down Talaat Pasha at the end of WWI, and how he was recruited to carry out the assassination by the Armenian Revolutionary Federation (ARF), the largest Armenian political party at that time. The book includes Telirian's trial and acquittal in Berlin. Talaat Pasha's assassination and Tehlirian's trial had wide-reaching consequences, including a direct impact on Raphael Lempkin, who coined the phrase "genocide" and worked for the adoption of the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide in 1948.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seven decades after the destruction of the Armenian population in the Ottoman Empire, the Armenian genocide remains largely ignored by governments and forgotten by the world public, even though the annihilation of Armenians was headlined around the world in 1915. Scholarly investigation of the Armenian genocide is just beginning, made more difficult by the tendency of many establishment figures to rationalize the past and the attempt of perpetrator governments and their successors to deny the past.This volume is a pioneering collective attempt to assess and analyze the Armenian genocide from differing perspectives, including history, political science, ethics, religion, literature, and psychiatry. Focusing on the general implications of denial, rationalization, and responsibility, it is particularly important as a precursor to the study of the Holocaust and other genocides.
