Abstract

The Revisionist and Holocaust Denial Discourse and the Memory’s Public Policy since 1990This study, based on articles published in the media, examines revisionist and also anti-Semitic discourses. The choice of articles was made after a thorough examination of the authors’ popularity, the repetitions in the message, the target public and the delivering newspaper’s identity. The conclusions dealing with public space show that differentiated collective memory is deeply contradictory. In public space nowadays, parallel memories are represented in the same way, but memory supported by central and local public institutions sometimes interferes with associative memory. The revisionist (Holocaust denier) associative memory maintains positions of the right-wing extremist cult, while the Jewish associative memory is centered on presenting the memory of the Holocaust victims.
