Abstract(s)
The compendium "Criminalizing Holocaust Denial in the EU" collects, translates to English and provides an overview on the current state of criminal Holocaust denial legislation of all 27 Member States. Being the first endeavor of this kind, the compendium pursues primarily four goals: first, it aims to provide an EU-wide comprehensive empirical basis for further comparative research on Holocaust denial bans and memory laws more generally. Second, it seeks to inform policy makers at the national and EU level about the existing rules in (other) EU Member States and their application. Thirdly, it seeks to broaden legal practitioners’ and the general public’s knowledge about Holocaust denial legislation, which is crucial for a critical and informed discourse about memory politics and law within the EU. With its linkage to public education about the Holocaust as such, the compendium finally aims to contribute to providing a basis for a world in which memory laws such as Holocaust denial bans may no longer be necessary.
