| Summary: | On March 11, 2010, in spite of years of resistance from its foreign minister (“it is not the duty of the Government to establish a historical course of events” [p. 349]), and a no-vote from its own Committee on Foreign Affairs (which found it inappropriate for a representative body to decide matters of international law), Sweden's parliament voted across party lines—131 to 130—to ask its government to recognize the Genocide of Armenians, Assyrians, Syrians, Chaldeans, and Pontic Greeks. Göran Gunner's Genocide of Armenians: Through Swedish Eyes offers an unpretentious (many photographs, no index), but fascinating survey of how Sweden got to that decision. |
