Reviews 195 muddles through the volume, but any expectation for an overarching conceptual frame or even a final interpretative conclusion is in vain. Instead, the book examines a range of issues but lacks focus and does not sufficiently situate the trials in the global history of genocide or even in the context of World War I. (Gary Bass' succinct, though less rigorous, study, Stay the Hand of Vengeance: The Politics of War Crimes Tribunals [Princeton, N.J.: Princeton University Press, 2001], offers such an overview.) Nevertheless, a useful reference book of this kind was long overdue, and Judgment at Istanbul will prove indispensable for any student of the Armenian genocide.
