Abstract

[Autom. eng. transl.] With the law 16/6/2016, n. 115, Italy has criminally punished the negationist conduct, thus giving effect to an obligation descending from participation in the European Union. Indeed, Framework Decision 2008/913 / GAI requires Member States to penalize those who justify, deny or minimize the occurrence of international crimes. This essay aims to verify the compliance of the Italian standard with supranational obligations. To this end, in addition to the aforementioned framework decision, the jurisprudence of the European Court of Human Rights and the internationalist acts inviting states to prohibit statements that incite hatred and violence are highlighted.
