Abstract:
This contribution examines how the Armenian Genocide was officially recognized in France and explores the consequences of this recognition. Drawing on draft laws, parliamentary motions, enacted legislation, and presidential speeches, we analyze the political and legal dynamics that shaped this process. Our findings suggest that the French recognition of the Armenian Genocide exerted a significant influence on subsequent recognitions of other genocides, helping to usher in a broader era conducive to formal acknowledgment of mass atrocities.
