legislation against holocaust denial
Legislation against Holocaust denial refers to laws enacted by governments to criminalize or prohibit denying or minimizing the historical reality of the Holocaust, a systematic genocide committed by Nazi Germany during World War II, in which six million Jews were murdered. These laws aim to prevent the dissemination of false information or propaganda denying the Holocaust and to protect the memory of the victims from distortion or revisionism.
