What is a concentration camp?  What are the distinguishing features of these spaces?  Where did they come from?

In this episode, I talk with Andrea Pitzer about the long, global history of the concentration camp and its evolution over time.  We talk about what the definition is, what qualifies something as a concentration camp, and how different societies have learned from each other in their various iterations of "the camp."


Andrea Pitzer is a journalist and author.
