Taner Akçam

Altuğ Taner Akçam (born in Ardahan, Turkey, October 23, 1953) is a Turkish-German historian〔 and sociologist. He is one of the first Turkish academics to acknowledge and openly discuss the Armenian Genocide, and is recognized as a "leading international authority" on the subject.〔David Holthouse, ''Southern Poverty Law Center'', (State of Denial: Turkey Spends Millions to Cover Up Armenian Genocide ) Intelligence Report, Summer 2008〕
Akçam argues for an attempt to reconcile the differing Armenian and Turkish narratives of the genocide, and to move away from the behaviour which uses those narratives to support national stereotypes. "We have to re-think the problem and place both societies in the centre of our analysis. This change of paradigm should focus on creating a new cultural space that includes both societies, a space in which both sides have the chance to learn from each other." (Akcam, 2004, p. 262).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gariwo: the gardens of the Righteous > Taner Akcam - 1953 () )〕
== Life and career ==

Akçam was born in Ölçek village near Ardahan, Turkey to Dursun and Perihan Akçam.〔Şişli State Head Prosecutor, (Suspect’s Statement Form ). Investigation № 2006/49047.〕 He has stated that he was raised in "a very secular family," with his father being an atheist.〔(Is It Still Genocide if Your Allies Did It? ), lawandpolitics.com.〕 He studied economics at the Middle East Technical University in Ankara, and graduated in 1976. In 1974, Akçam was arrested for participating in student protests against the Turkish invasion of Cyprus.〔 In 1975 he was arrested for distributing leaflets and placing posters around the city. (Akçam notes that "one had to obtain permission from what is now called the Security General Directorate’s Special Inspection Branch Directorate for the Associations, and that even with a special permit in hand, one could be arbitrarily arrested and apprehended at police headquarters for 3–5 days."〔) On March 9, 1976, soon after graduating from university, while a graduate student at the same department, he was arrested for his involvement in producing a student journal that focused on the treatment of Turkey’s Kurdish minority.〔〔 ''Devrimci Gençlik'' ("Revolutionary Youth"),〔〔〔〔〔 was the journal of a radical leftist organization,〔〔〔 called ''Devrimci Yol'' ("Revolutionary Path").〔 Akçam explained that he accepted the editorship position, aged 22, since none of his peers stepped up to the plate, knowing that it could land him in jail.〔 His fears materialized when he received a nine-year sentence in early 1977, which resulted in Amnesty International adopting him in 1976 as a prisoner of conscience.〔 He served for a year before escaping from Ankara Central Prison on March 12, 1977,〔〔〔 using the leg of an iron stove to dig a hole.〔 He received political asylum from Germany in 1978, where he obtained citizenship and resided until obtaining his doctorate degree in 1995.〔〔〔〔
In August 1988 Akçam began work as a research scientist at the ''Hamburger Institut für Sozialforschung'' (Hamburg Institute for Social Research).〔(Taner Akçam, Dr. phil. ), Hamburg Institute for Social Research 〕〔 He received his PhD from the University of Hanover with a dissertation titled, ''Turkish Nationalism and the Armenian Genocide: On the Background of the Military Tribunals in Istanbul between 1919 and 1922''.〔 Akçam is a former student of fellow genocide scholar, Vahakn Dadrian.〔 In 1997, a Dutch documentary titled "Een Muur van Stilte" (A Wall of Silence), written and directed by Dorothée Forma of the Humanist Broadcasting Foundation ((オランダ語:Humanistische Omroep Stichting)),〔 was made about their "academic relationship."
Akçam was Visiting Associate Professor of History at the University of Minnesota, United States before joining Clark University's Strassler Family Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies.〔
After the assassination of Hrant Dink in 2007, Akçam attended Dink's funeral in Istanbul. According to Intelligence Report journal of Southern Poverty Law Center,

"Dink's friend and ideological ally Taner Akçam, a distinguished Turkish historian and sociologist on the faculty of the University of Minnesota's Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies, attended Dink's funeral in Turkey, despite the considerable risk to his own life. Akçam, a leading international authority on the Armenian genocide, was marked for death by Turkish ultranationalists following the November 2006 publication of his book ''A Shameful Act: The Armenian Genocide and The Question of Turkish Responsibility''. The book is a definitive history based in large part on official documents from Turkish government archives."〔

In 2008 when Akçam's appointment as the chairman of Armenian genocide studies at Clark University was questioned by local Turks as biased, Deborah Dwork, director of the Strassler Family Center for Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Clark, said that "ethnic or religious identity is not crucial to any appointment," and that "they hire the best scholars in the pool".
