This question refers to the treatment of American and United Nations troops held as prisoner-of-war by the Democratic People's Republic of North Korea during War (1951-1953). UN and American POWs were subjected to torture and brainwashing in contravention of the Geneva Convention. Furthermore many still remain unaccounted for.

Who invented concentration camp?

The term Concentration camp was first used by the British in the Boer wars. this was very different form the concentration camps used in Nazi Germany. they were not death camps but camps in which the family of Boer rebels were imprisoned so that they could not aid the rebels. However concentration camps have been used before this (only they were not called concentration camps) they were used by the Spanish in the 1860's even American soldiers used similar camps on Cherokee and other native Americans in the 1830's so this type of military tactic has been around for a long time, but the term is British. Evidently, there are no real differences, but rather there are similarities between the English and the German concentration camps.
