A Dadrian book published in Turkey

 

The Turkish Belge Publishing House has just released a volume of

studies by internationally renowned scholar, Vahakn N. Dadrian, tilted "The Role of Organizations in the Armenia Genocide."

 

This collection contains three monographs and five journal articles on the World War I Armenian Genocide and is the first of a two-volume series Belge has projected for publication. The translations from English into Turkish were done by the Turkish intellectual Attila Tuygan.

 

As the publisher has stated, one of the many aspects of the significance of this publication derives from the fact that the primary sources and data that Dadrian relies on are mainly authentic Ottoman-Turkish documents; they are complemented and reinforced by extensive use of the state archive documents of Imperial Germany and Imperial Austria-Hungary.
