  Internment, Incarceration and Detention

  Captivation histories in Europe around the First and Second World War

  On 3 and 4 November the NIOD, Institute for for War, Holocaust and Genocide Studies will organize a workshop in Amsterdam (The Netherlands) on "Internment, Incarceration and Detention. Captivation histories in Western Europe around the First and Second World War". The workshop seeks to explore the historical practice of incarcerating enemies of the (former) regime, the changes that occur in the existing penal system by doing so, the emergence of new types of correctional institutions and their practical implementation in imprisonment cultures. Different types of prisons should be considered, the most important being: the regular prisons, internment camps and different types of concentration camps (not the extermination camps).
