Late Ottoman genocides
Late Ottoman genocides is a historiographical theory which sees the concurrent Armenian, Greek, and Assyrian genocides that occurred during the 1910–1920s as part of a single event rather than separate policies led by the Young Turks. Although some sources, including "The Thirty-Year Genocide" by the historians Benny Morris and Dror Ze'evi, characterize this event as a genocide of Christians, others such as those written by the historians Dominik J. Schaller and contend that such an approach "ignores the Young Turks' massive violence against non-Christians", in particular against Muslim Kurds. The historian and sociologist Uğur Ümit  Üngör states that mass violence in the late Ottoman Empire and its successors includes–but is not limited to–the persecutions of Muslims during the Ottoman contraction in the 19th and early 20th century, the Adana massacre of Armenians in 1909, the Greek genocide (1913–1922), the Assyrian genocide (1914–1924), the Armenian genocide (1915–1917), the 1921 Koçgiri massacres of Kurdish rebels, "the mass violence against Kurds from the 1925 Sheikh Said conflict to the 1938 Dersim massacre", the 1934 Thrace pogroms against Jews and the 1955 Istanbul pogrom against Greeks and Armenians. Other scholars sometimes also include the earlier Hamidian massacres  of Armenians in the 1890s or the deportations of Kurds between 1916 and 1934. According to the journalist Thomas de Waal, there is a lack of a work similar to historian Timothy Snyder's "Bloodlands" that attempts to cover all of the mass violence in Anatolia and the Caucasus between 1914 and 1921. De Waal suggests that while "the genocide of 1915–1916 would stand out as the biggest atrocity of this period... [such a work] would also establish a context that would allow others to come to terms with what happened and why, and also pay homage to the many  Muslims who died tragically in this era".
