Their conversation will focus on recent research on the Armenian Genocide, including the foreign office records of Germany, Turkey’s most important ally during World War I. These detailed reports of German diplomats, missionaries, and businessmen raise the crucial question of why knowledge alone is not sufficient to stop genocide.

He has published more than 30 volumes on Armenian history and culture, including Looking Backward, Moving Forward: Confronting the Armenian Genocide. Dr. David Crowe is Professor of History Emeritus at Elon University and the author of the definitive biography on Oskar Schindler, as well as numerous books on the history of genocide, including War Crimes, Genocide, and Justice: A Global History. The conversation will be moderated by Dr. Jennifer Keene, Chair of the Department of History in Chapman University’s Wilkinson College of Arts, Humanities, and Social Sciences and current President of the Society of Military History.
