Abstract

Memory laws Genocide denial Glorification of war criminals Srebrenica genocide Bosnia and Herzegovina
This blog post focuses on the amendment banning genocide denial in Bosnia and Herzegovina, which has been recently imposed in the country by the former High Rapresentative, Valentin Inzko. In particular, it positions the imposed legislation in a much broader category of memory laws, explores the reactions and consequences it has produced up to now, and interrogates whether an internationally imposed memory law can help reconciliation in a deeply divided society.
