Research on the comparative use of concentration camps is limited, even though more than 150 such systems were employed across more than 90 countries between 1896 and 2018, including at least 15 after 2001. This project will produce original new global datasets on concentration camp systems from 1896-2018 that will be made publicly available. The new datasets will facilitate study of the causes, conduct, and consequences of concentration camp systems and therefore will enable new scholarly research that examines the role played by concentration camp systems in contentious politics, government repression, forced migration, and political violence.This project will produce two original datasets on the use of concentration camps globally between 1896 and 2018 in over 90 countries. Camps are defined as bounded and fortified spaces housing minoritized populations subject to irregular detention, whom camp administrators purposefully neglect, often force into labor, and sometimes kill in large numbers. The construction of the datasets will be based on systematic coding of information from a diverse range of sources. The first dataset will include details of the approximately 150 systems of concentration camps. The second dataset will then catalogue details of the thousands of individual camps of which these systems are collectively comprised. These datasets will advance understanding of concentration camps by enabling quantitative research and facilitating comparison of historical and modern cases. The datasets will therefore significantly advance scientific understanding of the causes, conduct, and consequences of concentration camps as well comparative patterns of mass detention inside and outside of war.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

尽管在1896年至2018年期间在90多个国家使用了150多个集中营系统，包括2001年后的至少15个国家，但关于集中营比较利用的研究有限。该项目将产生关于1896-2018年集中营系统的原始新的全球数据集，并将向公众公布。新的数据集将促进对集中营制度的原因、行为和后果的研究，因此将使新的学术研究成为可能，研究集中营制度在有争议的政治、政府镇压、强迫移民和政治暴力中所起的作用。该项目将产生两个关于1896年至2018年全球90多个国家使用集中营的原始数据集。集中营被定义为有限制和戒备森严的空间，容纳被非正常拘留的小规模人口，集中营管理员故意忽视这些人，经常强迫他们劳动，有时还会大量杀害他们。数据集的构建将基于对来自不同来源的信息进行系统编码。第一个数据集将包括大约150个集中营系统的详细情况。然后，第二个数据集将编目这些系统共同组成的数千个单独营地的详细情况。这些数据集将促进对集中营的了解，使量化研究成为可能，并促进历史案例与现代案例的比较。因此，这些数据集将大大促进对集中营的原因、行为和后果的科学理解，以及战争内外大规模拘留的比较模式。这一裁决反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
