	Australian Memories Of The Holocaust
		There were transit camps, labour camps, prisoner of war camps, camps for children, camps for women, concentration camps and extermination camps.
		In general, the camps were places where inmates were concentrated and either killed immediately, or killed by or after being put to forced labour.
		Usually when a transport arrived at a camp, it was met by camp guards and all those people who had survived the journey were hustled off the trains with shouts, whips, dogs and guns.

	Labor camp - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A labor camp is a simplified detention facility where inmates are engaged in penal labor.
		The Nazis also operated concentration camps, some of which provided free forced labor for industrial and other jobs while others existed purely for the extermination of their inmates.
		In Communist Romania, labor camps were operated for projects such as the building of the Danube-Black Sea Canal and the desiccation of the Great Brăila Island, on which "enemies of the people" were "re-educated" by forced labor.

	Lies concerning the history of the Soviet Union
		His texts on the labour camps were added to the propaganda on the millions who were supposed to have died in the Soviet Union and were presented by the capitalist mass media as though they were true.
		As far as the Soviet labour camps were concerned, it is true that the regime was harsh and difficult for the prisoners, but what is the situation today in the prisons of the US, which are rife with violence, drugs, prostitution, sexual slavery (290,000 rapes a year in US prisons).
		Deaths in the labour camps were caused by the general shortage of resources in society as a whole, in particular the medicines necessary to fight epidemics.

	Anne Applebaum -- A History of Horror
		The authors point out, as have others, that the Nazis did not consider their death camps that is, camps where prisoners arrived and were immediately executed to be part of the same system as their concentration camps.
		Concentration camps are not built for individuals, but rather for a particular type of non-criminal, civilian prisoner, the member of an "enemy" group, or at any rate of a category of people who, for reasons of their race or their presumed politics, are judged to be dangerous or extraneous to the society.
		The idea of the concentration camp, then, was general enough to export; but the specific details what the camps were used for, how they ultimately developed, how rigid or disorganized they became, how cruel or liberal they remained all of this depended on the particular country, on the culture, on the regime.

		In the late summer of 1941 Rudolf Hoess, the camp commandant, was told by Himmler that Auschwitz was to be a principal centre for killing Jews.
		As in labour/concentration camps throughout German-occupied Europe, inmates of Auschwitz and its associated camps were stripped of their individuality and shorn of self-respect.
		Most had to do hard manual labour at a murderous tempo and were subject to brutal punishment for the slightest breach of regulations or simply at the whim of the guards.

	Gendercide Watch: Corvée (Forced) Labour
		It must also be borne in mind that in many cases, forced labourers who fell sick or made mistakes on the job were dispatched to out-and-out death camps, and therefore may be counted among the casualties of the Nazi holocaust.
		Forced labour practices for public purposes include the following: (1) portering, combat, mine-sweeping, and sexual services for military troops; (2) construction and other heavy labour on development and infrastructure projects that do not benefit and, most often, harm the population from which forced labour is exacted; and (3) heavy work on military construction projects.
		As a result, many of them died or were killed in the course of forced labour, some were used as human shields during military actions, others were shot when trying to escape or were killed or abandoned when as a result of malnutrition or exhaustion they were no longer able to carry their load.

	BBC NEWS \| Politics \| Labour camps roll the dice
		While Mr Brown would prefer to talk about Britishness, his moral compass and inclusive approach to politics, and Labour's renewal under a new generation, he has found himself attempting to prove he is not a control freak with psychological problems.
		He may have been planning to do that in any case at this time, but it will be difficult for his opponents to claim he is the one destabilising the government when he is simply attempting to counter their assaults on his abilities.
		That would be bad enough on its own but, as far as the Blairite camp is concerned, it will also risk adding to the demands for the prime minister to bring it all to an end by resigning much sooner that currently planned.

	The violent machine - prisoners in concentration camps forced to work like slaves New Internationalist - Find Articles
		From the Mandarin, the word 'Laogai' translates literally as 'reform through labour' and describes a system of forced-labour camps spanning China from the highly industrialized prison-factories of the eastern coastal cities to the isolated, fenceless farms of the west.
		Chinese Communist ideas regarding reform through labour have their roots in the writings of Marx and Engels as they were interpreted by the Soviets and then reinterpreted by Mao Zedong.
		In this mesh of profit and politics persists a system where prisoners labour not for earned wages or even for their own spiritual reform, but for the distinct purpose of generating a profit for the government that holds them captive.
