The Banality of Denial examines the attitudes of the State of
Israel and its leading institutions toward the Armenian Genocide.
Israel's view of this issue has special significance and deserves
an attentive study, as it is a country composed of a people who
were victims of the Holocaust. The Banality of Denial seeks both to
examine the passive, indifferent Israeli attitude towards the
Armenian Genocide, and to explore active Israeli measures to
undermine attempts at safeguarding the memory of the Armenian
victims of the Turkish persecution.
Such an inquiry into attempts at denial by Israeli institutions
and leading figures of Israel's political, security, academic, and
Holocaust "memory-preservation" elite has not merely an academic
significance. It has considerable political relevance, both
symbolic and tangible.
In The Banality of Denial--as in Auron's previous work--moral,
philosophical, and theoretical questions are of paramount
importance. Because no previous studies have dealt with these
issues or similar ones, an original methodology is employed to
analyze the subject with regard to four domains: political,
educational, media, and academic.
