Table of ContentsReviews"""Julien Zarifian has produced a masterful account of the domestic and international ""politicking"" that led to the decades'-long delay in America's recognizing as genocide the mass killings of Armenians by the Ottoman Empire, perpetrated during the era of the First World War. His skillful assessment of the cross-cutting pressures that were brought to bear upon Washington decisionmakers from both foreign and domestic sources establishes The United States and the Armenian Genocide as the definitive work on the topic.""--David G. Haglund ""Professor of Political Studies, Queen's University (Canada)""" ""The seminal text on the US relationship with the Armenian Genocide. Through a meticulous historical analysis of events and primary and secondary resources, combined with semistructured interviews with decision makers and lobbyists, Zarifian walks readers through more than a century of history, a history that ultimately culminated with formal recognition of the Armenian Genocide by the United States. . . . A must-read book for scholars and students interested in the Armenian Genocide, historical cases of genocide, genocide denial, the intersection of US foreign and domestic policies, and the role of civil society in pursuing change.""— Peace & Change ""Julien Zarifian has produced a masterful account of the domestic and international “politicking” that led to the decades-long delay in America’s recognizing as genocide the mass killings of Armenians by the Ottoman Empire, perpetrated during the era of the First World War.

Haglund, professor of Political Studies, Queen’s University (Canada) ""Julien Zarifian's study sheds light on much more than the question of the Armenian Genocide: it sheds light on an American political class and a federal administration that have long been susceptible to outside pressure from pro-Turkish lobbies, revealing a political culture that is relatively untouched by ethical questions. The author's methodical dismantling of this process is an essential tool for understanding the inner workings of the American state.""— Raymond H.
