Panayiotis Diamadis is a genocide scholar specialising in the Genocides of the Hellenes, Armenians and Assyrians (1914-1924). He co-ordinates the Genocide Studies course at the University of Technology, Sydney, and teaches history at college level.[1] Born in Sydney, he is of Greek descent. He holds a Doctorate of Philosophy from the University of Sydney. Since 2000, he has served as a Vice-President of the Australian Institute for Holocaust and Genocide Studies, including teaching Genocide Studies at the University of Technology, Sydney between 1999 and 2015.[2][better source needed] He is member of the editorial board of the "Journal for Greek Letters", edited by the Australian Association of Modern Greek Studies.[3]
Diamadis' work in Shoah studies focuses on Greece and Cyprus. He has developed and presented studies on the languages of the Romaniote Jews of Ioannina before the Shoah, and on the rescue of eastern European Jews by smugglers of the Hellenic underworld in the 1930s and 1940s. In recent years, Diamadis' research focus around the Shoah has shifted to the interaction of Cyprus and Israel, especially the emerging strategic alliance.[citation needed]
Diamadis' works on the genocides of the indigenous peoples of eastern Thrace, Anatolia and Mesopotamia (Bet-Nahrain) consistently include material on the Hellenes, Armenians and Assyrians together.
In Australia, is one of the scholars who criticized the American-Australian film The Water Diviner for not mentioning the genocide of Armenians, Greeks and Assyrians in Ottoman Empire and whitewashing the Turks.[4] His criticism was covered by major Greek newspapers,[5][6], including papes of the Greek diaspora.[7] and Armenian media[8]
