Sherman: Institute on the Holocaust and Genocide in Jerusalem-Highlights of the Story of the First Institute on Genocide in the World Afterword Standing Up for Truth and Justice against Excessive Power Acknowledgments and Heartfelt Thanks About the Author Index Ten Commandments for Sovereign Nations and Genocide Scholars Samuel TottenReviewsCharny, one of the founders of the modern study of genocide and a strong fighter for the Armenians against the denial of their genocide by the Turks, does many things in this relatively short book [including] a denunciation of Israel's support of nations and leaders who have committed genocidal acts. This brilliant book by a scholar and activist ... tells a tale full of flame and fury but with a wisdom accumulated over nearly a century of living the ethics that he upholds-Charny is indefatigable, relentless and humanitarian. -Jack Nusan Porter, The Jerusalem Post In Israel's Failed Response to the Armenian Genocide, Charny... revisits the [First International Conference on the Holocaust and Genocide], attempts by the Foreign Ministry to torpedo it, and issues a scathing indictment of Israel's refusal, then and now, to officially recognize genocidal wars against other peoples. ... [S]erious consideration of Charny's claim - 'the basic and horrendous commonality' in all genocides, including the Armenian tragedy, should override obsessions about uniqueness and a consensus definition of the 'category name' - is as urgently necessary as it has ever been. ... Charny makes a compelling case that the principal reason Israeli leaders opposed the conference was their determination to keep the Holocaust, the 'unbearable cataclysmic tragedy' of the Jewish people, 'at the ultimate untouchable apex of a hierarchy of genocidal suffering... the greatest evil ever seen in human history.' ... Irrepressibly candid and combative at age 91, Charny has thrown down the gauntlet. - Glenn C. Altschuler, The Jerusalem Post Charny, one of the founders of the modern study of genocide and a strong fighter for the Armenians against the denial of their genocide by the Turks, does many things in this relatively short book [including] a denunciation of Israel's support of nations and leaders who have committed genocidal acts. This brilliant book by a scholar and activist ... tells a tale full of flame and fury but with a wisdom accumulated over nearly a century of living the ethics that he upholds-Charny is indefatigable, relentless and humanitarian. -Jack Nusan Porter, The Jerusalem Post Author InformationIsrael W. Charny, Ph.D., is an American-Israeli psychologist who lives in the hills of Jerusalem. He was co-founder and then a president of the International Association of Genocide Scholars. He was also the founder and first president of the Israel Family Therapy Association and later president of the International Family Therapy Association. For him, the process of genocide starts with cultural genocide, especially of dehumanization and attribution of evil intent and destructive power to the victim people. He has openly made a stand against all denials of genocide including the Holocaust and, in particular, the Armenian Genocide, for which he was honored by the Armenian Presidential Gold Medal. He has authored influential books on genocide, including the Encyclopedia of Genocide, Genocide: A Critical Bibliographic Review, and Fascism and Democracy in the Human Mind, each of which were elected Outstanding Academic Book of the Year by the American Library Association.
