Chapter 17 Uniqueness as Denial: The Politics as Genocide Scholarship

This chapter deals with the intentional denial of the Jewish Holocaust and the background of those that deny it. While denial of the Holocaust isn't widespread it is a serious enough issue for many countries to ban it. In Germany, the German law states that "denial of the Holocaust" is punishable by up to five years in jail. denial of the holocaust is a result of antisemitism, but it goes further than this.
