Online Encyclopedia of Mass Violence launched today the first working
tool on the crimes against Humanity perpetrated on all the continents,
during and after the 19th century. Four pages are devoted to the
Armenian Genocide, independent correspondent Jean Eckian informed
from France.
This Encyclopedia Project aims to create a regularly updated
electronic database focusing on massacres and genocides of the
20th century. Currently, there is no tool available that documents
and classifies our knowledge by continent, country and historical
period. The Encyclopedia's first objective is to fill this gap by
offering reliable historical description and interdisciplinary analysis
of both well-documented and less well-known 20th century massacres.
Such a unique database will not only be valuable to scholars, but
also the NGO community, international legal experts, policy makers
and journalists.
Anyone seeking a reliable account regarding a specific case of
massacre, in a particular country or on an exact date will now be
able to locate the information on the Encyclopedia.
The Online Encyclopedia provides chronological indexes, case studies,
analytical contributions on socio-political violence in a given
country, a glossary of the terms most often used in genocide studies
as well as theoretical papers written by the most representative
authors in the field.
