Famine camps detained emaciated refugees and billeted relief applicants on public works projects; plague camps segregated populations suspected of harboring disease and accommodated those evacuated from unsanitary locales; concentration camps during the Anglo-Boer War, meanwhile, adapted a technology of colonial welfare in the context of war. Wartime camps in South Africa were simultaneously instruments of military violence and humanitarian care. While providing food and shelter to destitute refugees and disciplining and reforming a population cast as uncivilized and unhygienic, British officials in South Africa applied a developing set of imperial attitudes and approaches that also governed the development of plague and famine camps in India. More than the outcomes of military counterinsurgency, Boer War camps were registers of cultural discourses about civilization, class, gender, racial purity and sanitary pollution. Although British spokesmen regarded camps as hygienic enclaves, epidemic diseases decimated inmate populations creating a damaging political scandal. In order to curb mortality and introduce order, the British government mobilized a wide variety of disciplinary and sanitary lessons assembled at Indian plague and famine camps and at other kindred institutions like metropolitan workhouses. Authorities imported officials from India with experience managing plague and famine camps to systematize and rationalize South Africa's wartime concentration camps. Ultimately, improvements to inmates' health and well-being served to legitimize camps as technologies of liberal empire and biopolitical security"--Provided by publisher. 588 0 Online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on October 18, 2017). 590 eBooks on EBSCOhost|bEBSCO eBook Subscription Academic Collection - North America 647 7 South African War|d(1899-1902)|2fast|0https:// id.worldcat.org/fast/1127143 648 7 19th century|2fast 648 7 1800-1902|2fast 650 0 Internment camps|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2020000306|zAfrica|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85001531-781|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov /authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 650 0 South African War, 1899-1902|xConcentration camps.|0https: //id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh89000665 650 0 Internment camps|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/ sh2020000306|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/ n80125948-781|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 650 7 Internment camps.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 2028874 650 7 Colonies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/868456 650 7 SOCIAL SCIENCE|xPenology.|2bisacsh 650 7 HISTORY|zEurope|xGreat Britain.|2bisacsh 650 7 British colonies.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/ 1910374 650 7 Nazi concentration camps.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/ fast/2025836 651 0 Great Britain|xColonies|zAfrica|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh86007182|y19th century.|0https:// id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 651 0 Great Britain|xColonies|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities/ subjects/sh85056632|zIndia|0https://id.loc.gov/authorities /names/n80125948-781|y19th century.|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/subjects/sh2002012475 651 7 Africa.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1239509 651 7 Great Britain.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1204623 651 7 India.|2fast|0https://id.worldcat.org/fast/1210276 655 4 Electronic books. 776 08 |iPrint version:|aForth, Aidan.|tBarbed-wire imperialism. |dOakland, California : University of California Press, [2017]|z9780520293960|w(DLC) 2017010810 830 0 Berkeley series in British studies ;|0https://id.loc.gov/ authorities/names/no2011084753|v12. 856 40 |uhttps://rider.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https:// search.ebscohost.com/login.aspx?direct=true&scope=site& db=nlebk&AN=1583462|zOnline ebook via EBSCO.
