Why did some people end up in a prison of war camps in world war 2?
because it would be unreasonable economically to take care of all the prisoners in ethical ways. POW camps are a way for a country to take prisoners and handle them in accordance with accepted "rules of war." America had POW camps for Japanese Americans (even those born here) because "they might be sympathizers with the enemy". This was wrong in oh so many ways. But the heart of the matter is, POW camps were designed to reduce economic costs and increase security of the land the enemy was invading. Alternatives ARE few: kill everyone, wounded or not, surrendering or not and take no prisoners, or don't fight.
