Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to list the necessary basic facts from the theory of moduli spaces and their compactifi- cations. Giving complete proofs would require a book, and therefore we usually only describe what is going on. Precise details may be found in the appropriate books, and this survey might be useful as an introduction to them.
