This book examines the confiscation of Armenian properties during the genocide and subsequent attempts to retain seized Armenian wealth. Through the close analysis of laws and treaties, it reveals that decrees issued during the genocide constitute central pillars of the Turkish system of property rights, retaining their legal validity, and although Turkey has acceded through international agreements to return Armenian properties, it continues to refuse to do so. The book demonstrates that genocides do not depend on the abolition of the legal system and elimination of rights, but that, on the contrary, the perpetrators of genocide manipulate the legal system to facilitate their plans. 410 0$aWar and genocide ;$vv. 21. 606 $aArmenians$zTurkey$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aArmenians$xLegal status, laws, etc$zTurkey$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aArmenian question 606 $aArmenians$xRelocation$zTurkey$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aForced migration$zTurkey$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPillage$zTurkey$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aTurkey$xHistory$yMehmed V, 1909-1918 615 0$aArmenians$xHistory 615 0$aArmenians$xLegal status, laws, etc.$xHistory 615 0$aArmenian question. 615 0$aArmenians$xRelocation$xHistory 615 0$aForced migration$xHistory 615 0$aPillage$xHistory 676 $a956.6/20154 686 $aNK 4200$qDE-24/20sred$2rvk 700 $aAkc?am$b Taner$f1953-$0296985 702 $aKurt$b U?mit 702 $aArkun$b Aram 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910818110503321 996 $aThe spirit of the laws$94095134 997 $aUNINA
