The 1915-1916 annihilation of the Armenians was the archetype of modern genocide, in which a state adopts a specific scheme geared to the destruction of an identifiable group of its own citizens. Official German diplomatic documents are of great importance in understanding the genocide, as only Germany had the right to report day-by-day in secret code about the ongoing genocide. The motives, methods, and after-effects of the Armenian Genocide echoed strongly in subsequent cases of state-sponsored genocide. Studying the factors that went into the Armenian Genocide not only gives us an understanding of historical genocide, but also provides us with crucial information for the anticipation and possible prevention of future genocides."--pub. desc. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Armenian Genocide, 1915-1923 |vSources. 650 0 Armenians |zTurkey |xHistory |vSources. 650 0 Genocide |zTurkey |xHistory |vSources. 700 1 Gust, Wolfgang. 710 1 Germany. |bAuswärtiges Amt. |bPolitisches Archiv. 852 0 |bscstacks |hDS195.5 |i.V6513 2014
