British Diplomacy and the Armenian Question, from the 1830s to 1914

This volume traces the development of British foreign policy towards the Ottoman Empire, its Armenian population, and other ethnic groups. It explores British diplomatic activities and the British government’s role at various stages of the Armenian Question. British foreign policy is analyzed in the context of international and regional dynamics, against the backdrop of Britain’s political system and public opinion, the internal and foreign policy of the Ottoman government, the state of affairs in Western Armenia, and the Armenian national movement. The author makes extensive use of British Foreign Office archival and published materials, and other relevant literature and documents.
