520    "Some of the world's first refugee camps and concentration
       camps appeared in the British Empire in the late 19th 
       century. 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.
