"An irreplaceable resource for scholars and students interested in the changing governmental tactics of genocide denialism that span the globe today."—Holocaust and Genocide Studies"Der Matossian's Genocide Denial in the Twenty-First Century is essential reading as it keeps horrific losses from genocide at the forefront of our memories, while expanding our understanding of the myriad ways in which genocide has been and continues to be denied."—Jeff Bachman, H-Diplo "An extremely important book."—J. A. Drobnicki, Choice "Future scholars examining the how and why of these appalling 21st century genocide denialisms will benefit greatly from the studies set out in this thoughtful volume."—Magnus Fiskesjö, Journal of Peace Research“An understanding of denial is essential to an understanding of genocide. This book makes a powerful contribution to the field. It is admirably wide-ranging and comparative. Each chapter is engaging, compelling, and thought-provoking—perhaps not surprising given the eminence and reputations of its contributors.”—John Cox, author of To Kill a People: Genocide in the Twentieth Century “Providing an updated and comprehensive analysis of the ongoing phenomenon of genocide denial and its origins, motivations, and repercussions by experts in the field, this volume clarifies the prevalent and lamentable practice of both perpetrating mass murder and erasing its memory.”—Omer Bartov, author of Anatomy of a Genocide: The Life and Death of a Town Called Buczacz “With chapters by leading scholars, this volume provides key insights about how genocide denial has played out in some of the major cases of our times. It is a welcome and much-needed addition to the field of genocide studies.”—Alexander Laban Hinton, author of It Can Happen Here: White Power and the Rising Threat of Genocide in the U.S. “Extremely important and urgent. As we, scholars and the public, are faced with rising denialist attempts in various countries regarding various genocides, this volume [is a] very timely and an important contribution to a developing subfield of genocide studies and political education. Denial of genocide in itself and also in its comparative perspective is still relatively under-researched.”—Stefan Ihrig, author of Justifying Genocide: Germany and the Armenians from Bismarck to Hitler
