-This is an indispensable guide to the current state of scholarship
on the Armenian genocide in the context of contemporary politics
and international law. The essays show to what degree we have
entered a new phase in scholarly and political discussions of a
subject that simply refuses to go away. What until recently has
been treated as an Armenian or a Turkish problem here emerges as a
matter for all of us.- -Jay Winter, Yale University -Looking
Backward, Moving Forward brings the reader an up-to-date and
reasoned study of the Armenian Genocide in the context of history,
international law and issues that affect the ongoing trauma of the
genocide for both the descendants of victims and the perpetrators.
This volume, more than any other, suggests new directions in
energizing both scholarly and popular understanding of this event.-
