About this book

The role of the mass media in genocide is multifaceted with respect to the disclosure and flow of information. This volume investigates questions of responsibility, denial, victimisation and marginalisation through an analysis of the media representations of the Armenian genocide in different national contexts.

Reviews

“The editors of this most useful volume lay out their theoretical framework in an enlightening introduction. … This volume marks significant advances in the study of the Genocide of the Armenian people … . The volume, therefore, constitutes a remarkable contribution to our understanding of the relationship between media and historical memory.” (Gerard J. Libaridian, Social History, Vol. 49 (100), November, 2016)
