Robert Cribb et al., "Detention Camps in Asia: The Conditions of Confinement in Modern Asian History" (Brill, 2022)
Why have Asian states - colonial and independent - imprisoned people on a massive scale in detention camps?
How have detainees experienced the long months and years of captivity?
And what does the creation of camps and the segregation of people in them mean for society as a whole?
