What are concentration camps?

 

Concentration camps are not prisons where people are kept because they have been lawfully convicted of some criminal offense. They are places where political dissidents and members of national or minority groups are confined for reasons of state security, exploitation, or punishment for imagined or accused crimes. In Nazi Germany, the Jews were tortured and killed in these camps.
