The IHRA (formerly the Task Force for International Cooperation on Holocaust Education, Remembrance and Research, or ITF) was initiated in 1998 by former Swedish Prime Minister Göran Persson. Persson decided to establish an international organisation that would expand Holocaust education worldwide, and asked former president Bill Clinton and former British prime minister Tony Blair to join him in this effort. Persson also developed the idea of an international forum of governments interested in discussing Holocaust education, which took place in Stockholm between 27–29 January 2000. The Forum was attended by the representatives of 46 governments including; 23 Heads of State or Prime Ministers and 14 Deputy Prime Ministers or Ministers. The Declaration of the Stockholm International Forum on the Holocaust was the outcome of the Forum’s deliberations and is the foundation of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. The IHRA currently has 31 Member Countries, 10 Observer Countries and seven Permanent International Partners.
  • Pursuing the European Dream: the Second Olympic Ring the European Union, Co-Founder of the Four-Sea Alliance by Raymond Van Ermen – 18Th September 2005

    Pursuing the European Dream: the Second Olympic Ring the European Union, Co-Founder of the Four-Sea Alliance by Raymond Van Ermen – 18Th September 2005

    Pursuing the European Dream: the Second Olympic Ring The European Union, co-founder of the Four-Sea Alliance by Raymond Van Ermen – 18th September 2005. 2004 and 2005 marked a milestone in the history of Europe. We should mention in particular the reunification of Europe with the shift from a 15-nation Union to a 25-nation Union, the referenda on the European Constitution, and the changes in Georgia, the Ukraine and Lebanon, which have altered the democratic scene and the political deal. If Europe wants to remain true to its reputation of helping countries come out of dictatorship, not endangering democracy within its borders and taking expectations into account both within and outside the Union, it must embark on a new approach and “ gear up”. All the more so since three of its current policies should be seriously questioned: • The enlargement process has become chaotic. Although originally, it was a factor of stability, it is now transforming into a source of instability. Paradoxically, it is simultaneously too fast and not fast enough. It is therefore “neither immoral nor illegitimate” to say that the time has come for Europe and its partners to move to another system to ensure internal democracy, peace, stability and prosperity for all. • The Euro-Mediterranean Partnership is a failure (1) in the field of fundamental rights. These results, which are the fruit of the timid policy of the Union, are unacceptable for civil society. It is not enough to envisage new ‘conditions’ for governance, citizens must be given the right to bring an action before an ad hoc Court of Justice.

[email protected] Szerkesztésért felelős személy: Chen Xin Kiadásért felelős személy: Huang Ping china-cee.eu 2017/01 Bosnian genocide denial Bosnian Genocide denial is believed to be intentional act of Republika Srpska and (to a certain extent) Serbian authorities of denying the planned systematic genocide of 6000 to 7000 Bosniaks from Eastern Bosnia following the siege and capture of Srebrenica by the Srpska Army in July 1995. Serb politicians generally deny the genocide perpetrated against Bosniaks during the Bosnian war, refute claims that Srebrenica massacre constitutes a genocide, revise a number of soldiers and civilians killed during and in the aftermath of the 1995 Srebrenica siege (arguing that the total number of killed did not exceed a half of the number claimed by Bosniak side) and even claim that the genocide is perpetrated against the Serbs during the course of the Bosnian war. As a form of denialism, it can be compared to similar non-mainstream historical revisionisms such as Armenian Genocide denial and Holocaust denial. In generally accepted view shared among foreign experts and historians, however, the Srebrenica massacre is considered as the biggest genocide that occurred in Europe after WWII. A fact exacerbating the controversy of the Bosnian genocide is that it happened relatively soon, only 24 years ago, hence is not (yet) unanimously acknowledged as a historical fact by historians and genocide scholars alike.

    Rubina Peroomian, UCLA, [email protected] "Truth is Not Only Violated by Falsehood; it May be Equally Outraged by Silence" or The Suppression of the Memory of the Armenian Genocide in Turkey Beginning from the inception of the Turkish Republic, the CUP (Committee of Union and Progress, also known as the Young Turk party) policy of Turkification resumed full force and was implemented upon ethnic and religious minorities, among them the Armenian remnants of the 1915 Genocide. The Armenian cultural revival in Constantinople, between 1918 and 1923, was cut short by the encroachment of the Kemalist army and Mustafa Kemal’s eventual control over the entire country. The CUP ideology of “Turkey for the Turks only” was revived but camouflaged by a less threatening and inherently more inciting notion of “One Nation, One Language, One Religion!” The goal was achieved not only by impositions on the Republic’s infrastructural domains, especially the educational system and media, but also by the implementation of special laws and regulations, such as the abolition of non-Turkish surnames in 1934,1 denying Armenians, among others, who could claim Armenianness by a name that related to their ancestors. This was followed by the 1942 wealth tax (varlik vergisi), extreme and disproportionate taxation levied on non-Muslims, stripping them of their belongings, driving them out of business. The 1955 pogroms, 6-7 September, against Greeks spreading over Armenians as well, was another show of intolerance against non-Muslim ethnic minorities. The policy of Turkification was accelerated by the 1960s campaign highlighting the 1928 slogan “Fellow citizen, speak Turkish! (Vatandaş, Türkçe Konuş!) prohibiting the use of any language but Turkish.2 1 Even before the promulgation of The Law on Surnames, No.
