Sharing the Burden: The Armenian Question, Humanitarian Intervention, and Anglo-American Visions of Global Order
Bok av Charlie Laderman
Sharing the Burden explores the American response to the unprecedented massacre of over one million Armenians in the Ottoman Empire as a window onto the US rise to world power, its evolving relationship with Britain, and the development of ideas on global order at the turn of the twentieth century. In doing so, it provides a new perspective on US foreign relations, particularly during the presidencies of Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson, the origins of the
League of Nations, the development of Anglo-American relations, the shaping of the post-Ottoman Near East and the debate on the role of humanitarian intervention in American diplomacy.
