Tarik Amar review

[edit]

The Tarik Amar review was cited as evidence that “most” academic reviews of this book were negative. Academic Taras Kuzio wrote a negative review of that review, and it makes some convincing points.

Tarik Amar appears to be a contractor or employee of Russian state propaganda outfit RT. I have not yet read the entirety of either article, but Amar should probably be reviewed as a dubious source. —Michael Z. 04:33, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. We should start by summarizing the reviews in mainstream (major) academic journals. Genocide Studies and Prevention, Europe-Asia Studies, New Eastern Europe all probably have more impact IMHO than Kyiv-Mohyla Humanities Journal or Kritika: Explorations in Russian and Eurasian History. Europe-Asia Studies certainly is a major publication, based on indexing. Not that I am opposed to summarizing the reviews in KMHJ or Kritika.
