Study on how the memory of crimes committed by totalitarian regimes in Europe is dealt with in the Member States

Publication metadata

This study provides a factual overview of the different measures used in EU Member States in order to deal with the issue of the crimes committed by repressive regimes in Europe. The study does not intend to be an assessment of these regimes nor does it intends to be an evaluation of the measures adopted. It rather aims at exposing a factual overview of the various methods, legislations and practices adopted and used in the Member States to deal with the issue of dealing with the crimes committed by totalitarian regimes. For this aim, the study revises all relevant issues under the following headings: justice for victims; justice for perpetrators, fact finding/truth seeking, archives, symbolic policies and international instruments. One of the constant elements in the study is that different pieces of evidence could be fit in more than one category (for instance, monuments to victims are simultaneously part of reparations to victims and symbolic policies).
