LINCOLN, Nebr.--On the occasion of the Centennial of the Armenian
Genocide, the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) is hosting a two-day
conference on March 19-20, 2015, entitled "Crossing the Centennial:
The Historiography of the Armenian Genocide Re-Evaluated," that
will examine the latest developments in the historiography of the
Armenian Genocide.
The conference, organized by Prof. Bedross Der Matossian from the
Department of History at UNL, is co-sponsored by the Harris Center
for Judaic Studies, the National Association for Armenian Studies
and Research (NAASR) in Belmont, Mass., and the Society for Armenian
Studies (SAS) in cooperation with the Department of History, the Human
Rights and Humanitarian Affairs Program, and the Institute of Ethnic
Studies at UNL.
Twenty-two scholars from Armenia, Cambodia, Canada, Holland, Hungary,
Israel and the United States representing 17 different academic
institutions are going to take part in the conference. The conference
will focus on four themes that had been previously under-researched
but which in recent years have gained more scholarly attention and
analytical depth. These themes are Humanitarianism and Humanitarian
Intervention in the Armenian Genocide, Women and Children in the
Armenian Genocide, Comparative Dimensions of the Armenian Genocide,
and the Impact of the Armenian Genocide. The complete program of the
conference will be available in January 2015. For more information
