Criminal prosecution has become a way to influence collective memory in cases of state-sponsored mass murders, but such efforts call for a degree of dramatization that conflicts with the traditional functions of criminal law. Some issues include abrogation of defendants' rights in the interests of social solidarity, possible distortions of historical understanding, and dangers of such cases as precedent or analogy.

Examples from Germany, France, Japan, Israel and Argentina are discussed.
