forced labor camps

Forced labor camps are detention facilities where individuals are compelled to work against their will, often under harsh conditions and without adequate compensation. These camps can arise in various contexts, including wartime, political repression, or economic exploitation. Inmates, who may include prisoners, minorities, or political dissidents, endure grueling work environments, limited rights, and severe mistreatment. Historical examples include the Nazi concentration camps during World War II and labor camps in totalitarian regimes. The practice is a severe violation of human rights and is condemned by international law.
