THE PERFECT ETHNOCIDE: A REVIEW OF BAS KROMHOUT’S ‘DE PERFECTE GENOCIDE’

Abstract

There are a lot of claims surrounding the events of 1915amongst academics. With the bicentennial of the events in 2015, it isaccompanied by even more publications. The publication of Bas Kromhoutis one of them. His article is entitled ‘De perfecte genocide: 1,5 miljoenArmeniërs vermoord, over tot de orde van de dag’ and is entirely in Dutch.It can be translated to English as ‘The Perfect Genocide: 1,5 millionArmenians killed, but on to today’s news’. The article was published inthe most read historical magazine in the Netherlands, which is called‘Historisch Nieuwsblad’ in Dutch. This can be translated to ‘HistoricalNewspaper’ in English. It was featured on the front page of the magazinewhich had a special issue on the Armenian events of 1915 in January of2015. Bas Kromhout’s article was the so-called prime article of themagazine in the issue of January of 2015. Although Bas Kromhout is ayoung historian with a Ph.D. in Nazi-history, he now tried to change hisfield to the Armenian events of 1915 and wrote his first article about it. Inmy article, I will argue that Kromhout (willingly or unwillingly) is actuallya great example of Ethnocide, which is a certain method within academicor scholarly debates to pollute objective and neutral discussions betweenscholars. Although I started out to review Kromhout’s article, I wasstrongly convinced that Kromhout’s article is suited to see in the light ofEthnocide and disturbing the scholarly methods surrounding the historicaland juridical debate about the Armenian events of 1915
