Female Camp Guards: In the Sights of the Investigators in »East and West Germany«

Through extensive research, the author has compiled the biographies of three former female concentration camp guards and one former political inmate. These are examples of how such cases were treated differently in East and West after the end of the Nazi regime. With the help of numerous historical documents, he traces the lives of these women and the atrocities they committed. The different approaches to the prosecution of these perpetrators in the two states of Germany, and the omissions that are highlighted, are thought-provoking. Some of them escaped punishment and were able to lead carefree lives without remorse until the end of their days.
