HISTORIOGRAPHY AND THE FUTURE OF MULTICULTURALISM IN EUROPE: PERİNÇEK V. SWITZERLAND
Abstract
The case of Perinçek v. Switzerland, seen at the European Courtof Human Rights (ECHR), serves as an indication of a civic-integrationcrisis in parts of Europe. Since 9/11, the academic debate onmulticulturalism has become highly politicized and has shifted away fromprevious postcolonialist sensibilities. The significance of historiographyto national identity is currently understated in the relevant studies.Similarly, even though the ECHR recently ruled in favor of Doğu Perinçek,stating that there was no pressing social need to convict him because hisspeech was of a historical, legal and political nature, the Court did notconsider, however, whether there is a pressing social need to ask howhistoriographical differences due to difference of national heritage stiflecivil integration in Europe. The main argument in this paper is thathistoriographical adjustments toward a harmonious consolidation ofhistorical narratives among groups of different national and ethnicbackground are a prerequisite for civil integration in Europe. It is a majormisconception to think that multiculturalism is the reason for the failingintegration of Muslims in Europe, while there are in existenceirreconcilable narratives of national and religious history that arefoundational in the formation of group identity. The conflictingcharacterizations of the events in 1915-16 provide a major example of thischallenge
