| Summary: | This book focuses on the former forced labor camps from the National Socialist era from a historical and archaeological perspective. After a brief review of German archaeology's efforts to record the former Nazi-camps in present-day German territory, the volume deals with the case study of the Leipzig metropolitan area. The research highlights the pragmatic requirements of archaeological monument preservation in terms of material and location, and defends the importance of researching recent history based on archaeological documentation. Furthermore, this is a pioneering study for the Leipzig region that contributes to the preservation of former camps and thus the prevention of unconscious destruction of archaeological heritage at these sites. |
