Abstract
This presentation will give the audience a brief history of the highly controversial Armenian Genocide of 1915-1917, as well as explaining how this genocide has the unique disctinction of being highly contenious, but also simultaneously ignored within the realm of International Politics. This highly fraught yet unresolved scenario is used to serve the needs of international political actors, who politically manipulate this travesty to advance their own goals.
