Concentration camps are normally established to run as work camps for inmates. Prisoners sent to concentration camps can expect to subsist on starvation diets and brutal work. They could also be contracted out to nearby industries for work in war-related factories, like in Germany during the war. You can also find so-called "reeducation" programs targeted against political prisoners to make them more subservient. The extermination camps, like Auschwitz in Poland, was definitely a death camp. Those arriving by cattle trains from all over Europe, were promptly separated by able-bodied men on one side, and women and children and the elderly on the other. The latter were immediately sent to the gas chambers and those deemed fit for work were sent to quarries and other places where they were worked to death. There were concentration camps located adjacent to extermination camps like Auschwitz. The Serbs in the 1990's established concentration camps where they rounded up Moslems by the thousands. The gulags during the old Soviet Union days, were located all over the Urals and Siberia that acted as concentration camps.
Untold millions of people died from a variety of causes from these gulags. Both of these types of camps do overlap in history. During the brutal reign of terror of Pol Pot of Cambodia, over 2 million innocent people were murdered-many of these people were put in concentration camps that acted as well as extermination camps as well. As long as humans continue to hate other humans, there will always be these camps and the atrocities committed!
