Author: American Committee Opposed to the Lausanne Treaty Publisher: ISBN: Category : Armenian question Languages : en Pages : 218
Book Description
This volume is a collection of essays, as well as the text of the treaty and letters to and from members of the government. The basis for the Committee's opposition to the treaty is that it does not punish the perpetrators of the Armenian genocide. Moreover the Committee asserts the right of Armenians to an independent state supported by the United States. The essays attack the issue from a variety of standpoints, including humanitarian, on the basis of honor, and as a matter of economic/political weakness--specifically, in that the treaty ended foreign "rights" to extraterritorial privileges within Turkey. A common thread is that most of the essays are from a Christian standpoint: the writers assert that the killing of Armenians is especially terrible because they are Christians being killed by Muslims, or that the treaty itself is anti-Christian.

Book Description
Pertinent to contemporary demands for reparations from Turkey is the relationship between law and property in connection with the Armenian Genocide. This book examines the confiscation of Armenian properties during the genocide and subsequent attempts to retain seized Armenian wealth. Through the close analysis of laws and treaties, it reveals that decrees issued during the genocide constitute central pillars of the Turkish system of property rights, retaining their legal validity, and although Turkey has acceded through international agreements to return Armenian properties, it continues to refuse to do so. The book demonstrates that genocides do not depend on the abolition of the legal system and elimination of rights, but that, on the contrary, the perpetrators of genocide manipulate the legal system to facilitate their plans.
