Explains how the postwar history of the camp sites can be divided into several phases, which corresponded in part to the different uses to which the camps were put. Shows how some initiatives to memorialize the campsites and the suffering they had housed began simultaneously, notably the projects at Majdanek and Auschwitz, but elsewhere many camps were dismantled or abandoned due to local resistance
