Domenach, Jean-Luc. "Répression et enfermement en Chine populaire (1949-1989)." Paris, EHESS, 1992. http://www.theses.fr/1992EHES0012.
Full textThe subject of this thesis is the internment system of the chinese communists as it pertains to their general policy of repression. The thesis consists of two parts. The first and the largest part is historical and itself consists of four volumes. Volume i studies the formative years of the archipelago (1949-1957) : the "founding terror" (1949-1952) and the "building of socialism" (1955-1957). Unlike the (soviet) goulag, the archipelago enters straightaway into an advanced phase in which its specific characteristics are fully developed and fully observable. The second volume thus provides a sort of "crosssection" of this first archipelago. Beginning in 1958, the archipelago falls victim to two serious political failures which are examined in volume iii : the great leap forward and the cultural revolution. While these catastrophies had only limited mateirla effects on the internment system, they decisively undermined its political legitimacy. The ensuing deterioration of the system following the cultural revolution is analyzed in the fourth volume. The last two volumes, which comprise the secons part of the thesis, examine the overiding problems presented by internment in the peopl's. .

Full textThis work tries to consider , based on the reading of testimonies of nazi and soviet camps survivors which have a literary dimension, the implication of literature in the effort of a writing to say the truth on camp experience. Thus , it provides a detailed analysis of narrative processes used by the various authors considered (primo levi, david rousset, robert antelme, tadeusz borowski, varlam chalamov and soljenitsyne) , and a more general perspective which studies the relationships of camp survivors with literature , when these survivors want to give a written testimony. The reading of this corpus rises other questions : the role of literary activities in the camps , the basic aspects of the camp institution (social structures of camppopulation , analysis of the role of ideology and beyond , a reflection on the nature of totalitarian regimes). This work tries to show the capacity of literature to present the truth of a decisive historical and political experience

Full textThis thesis begins with noticing that pictorial representations (e.g. drawings or paintings etc.) in nazi concentration camps have been made by some subjets while imprisonment, in a massive traumatism, usually thinked as a non-representable situation. From a three drawers and drawings study, imcompletely by Andre Green’s applied psychoanalysis method, reflexion can occur with the hypothesis of a dissociated physical and psychic self-preservation in that context. To achieve this goal, historical nazi camps differed representations, massive traumatism and creation, are detailed in a psychoanalytic viewpoint with Freud, Ferenczi, Winnicott, Roussillon, Green, Bertrand, Zaltzman, Cerf de Duzeele, Waintrater and Cupa as main authors. Results show the existence of an intermediate space that enabled these subjets to keep a specific representational activity. It’s mainly a representation work of the camp overreality in a psychic self-preservation way. This work is an internal and external connection work, in a culture and filiation link, that struggles against drive defusion. Eternity and omnipotent fantasy, libidinal coexcitation underly drawings and pictorial activity. They interrogate about a possible sublimation

Full textThis thesis aims at probing the possibility of a literature on concentration camps. The first part copes with general questions such as the characteristics of a literature on concentration camps and gives a presentation of works pertaining to this category. The second chapter examines five conceptions illustrating the commun points and the diverge nces of the various historical and literary interpretations of concentration camps. The last chapter shows the specific features of each author through a study of their textes. This chapter is further divided in four subparts distinguishing the analysis of works by direct witness like antelme, chalamov, levi, rousset and wiesel, that of novels by gary and merle who have not personally experienced concentration camps, the study of solzhenitsyn's the gulag archipelago, and that of claude lanzmann's film, shoah. Throughout this inquiry we will try, by studing the fonctions which a literature on concentration camps can have, inscribe the singularity of the questions aroused bu the existence of concentration camps in the universality of the answers provided

Full textThis thesis is a study the concentration camps of nazi in french literature. It has two parts. In the first part. It's an evaluation about this special kind of literature which is generally badly estimated. The research shows that some books are beyond raw evidences. They have more capacity to sensitize and to impress than the history. In the second part, it's a research about the whole sufferances of prisoners and about their typical reactions provocated by the process of persecution in camps. The result of research is that the horror of concentration camps are beyond our imagination. It's partially inexpressible. The absurd events such as auschwitz should not repeat

Full textThe object of this thesis is to study the normative framework of concentration camp internment. The term ‘normative framework’ refers to the rules and procedures established and applied by the concentration camp administrations and which governed the internment of those prisoners in Nazi concentration camps. Our study is pragmatic. It is based primarily on the analysis of concentration camps’ administrative archives: the rules and procedures issued by central administrations concerning the internment of prisoners and their application, mainly at the Buchenwald camp.This approach demonstrates that the period of internment was not characteristically arbitrary. Rather, it occurred in accordance with a normative framework with specific characteristics. Despite formal imperfections due to their specific foundation in the Führer’s Will (Führerwille), concentration camp rules and procedures governed the inmate’s entire internment: contacts with the outside, punishment, forced labor and death. The participation of SS members, or employees of firms using detainee labor or even detainees themselves, was carried out in accordance with a normative framework. This explains in part why the various actors, believing their actions grounded in and justified by this pseudo-legal framework, took part in camp operations

Full textLes témoignages sur les camps de la mort interrogent la représentation artistique de l’horreur et de la violence absolue. Parmi les nombreux récits des rescapés, les textes qui font œuvre littéraire sont rares. Nous avons retenu ceux de Robert Antelme, Charlotte Delbo, Primo Levi, Ana Novac, Jorge Semprún et Elie Wiesel. Comment l’irreprésentable propre à l’univers des Lager et l’indicible propre à l’entreprise d’extermination nazie peuvent-ils être pris en charge par la littérature et par elle interprétés ? Les auteurs concernés avaient entretenu dans le monde d’avant des liens profonds avec l’écriture et la lecture ; au retour de l’enfer, ils sont devant un dilemme : se taire ou transmettre. Dans tous les cas, l’obligation d’une écriture littéraire pour rendre compte du réel concentrationnaire est pour eux évidente (I). Dire l’envers du monde et déchiffrer le système des camps nazis supposent que ces écrivains fassent d’abord un état des lieux précis et exhaustif pour mieux mettre en place les scènes emblématiques de l’existence des déportés et recenser tous les procédés de déshumanisation qu’ils ont subis (II). Il leur faut également représenter l’ensemble des figures de l’humanité concentrationnaire ; dans cette optique, ils livrent un examen clinique des corps des esclaves et de ceux des maîtres mais encore, ils travaillent leur éthopée pour dénoncer ce à quoi l’homme a été réduit derrière les barbelés des Lager (III). L’expérience de la déportation pour chacun de ces auteurs-témoins a fait advenir l’autre en eux. C’est pourquoi ils ont à cœur de souligner comment, dès leur arrivée, « le noviciat dantesque » a contribué à leur métamorphose identitaire qui s’est poursuivie au contact permanent de la mort omniprésente dans les camps. Après cette rupture dans leur existence, réapprendre à être dans le monde retrouvé des vivants a constitué une nouvelle épreuve (IV). L’écriture, dans l’immédiat de leur retour ou différée après un long silence, a solidifié les revenants qu’ils étaient ; les liens noués avec les lecteurs qu’ils ont voulu atteindre dans et par leurs textes les ont peut-être aidés à trouver leur voie dans cette deuxième vie qu’ils avaient à accomplir et leur ont donné une voix au sein de la littérature moderne (V)

Full textNo study has been as yet conducted about the homecoming and the psychological after-effects of French Resistance fighters deported to Nazi concentration camps. This study focuses on the past good moments, difficulties and coping strategies, as well as the current PTSD symptoms, of a sample of 36 men and 19 women using a semi-structured interview and a questionnaire. Coping with homecoming difficulties, more frequent than goods moments, is done preferentially through problem-oriented strategies. Moreover, most of the participants present current psychological after-effects, among which the repetition syndrome prevails. Thus, both the interest of long-term follow-up, post-event awareness and problem-oriented coping as well as the importance of militant commitment and transmission in the integration of deportation as a positive identity component, are enhanced

Full textAny mentioning of "Gulag culture" as an integrant part of Russian cultural history was banned during 73 years of the Soviet Union. Nevertheless, its notion comprises a multitude of realities. Understanding its complexity requires careful considerations which should be embedded in the context of historical dynamics that governed Soviet society under Josef Stalin. The present research work attempts to address the history of the Gulag throught Soviet ideology and culture, namely performings arts. Thus the thesis shows that "Gulag culture" was a subculture in Stalin's society. It was the embodiment of the prisoners' civilization that affected thousands, even millions, of "slaves" that the Soviet authorities created as an instrument for an economic need. The cultural frameworks in the forced labor camps embraced heartily propaganda and political agitation, but, at the same time, the full-fledged theatre companies composed of prisoners (creative intelligentsia representatives) who put great effort in spreading artistic activities within the camps played a very particular role. In some way, the phantasmagoric reality, which reigned in the camp theater, helped to overcome difficulties and an absurdity of the imprisonment. After all, there existed, in the country burdened under the weight of ideology, a "parallel" society with its own mode of life and culture

Full textThis thesis aims at reflecting on the manner in which the experience of the Nazi camps is communicated and conveyed, by applying a philosophical theory of events to literary studies. The purpose of this dissertation is to turn literary criticism into a place where different disciplines meet and eventually to construct a new methodology, able to link literary theory and creation with the historical and hermeneutic current initiated by the event. This study thus focuses on the very first means of communication and apprehension of the event in order to define the nature and specificity of literary creation in a context that tends to view images and raw testimony as rhe main channels of communication. The analysis turns to the event as it enters memory, through the study of seven literary reviews (among which the famous Les Temps Modernes and Esprit) and a large corpus of literary works (by Marguerite Duras, Maurice Blanchot, Georges Perec or more recent authors like François Bon and Amélie Nothomb). This work tackles the modes of visibility and intelligibility of such a memory and develops the idea of genocide and concentration camps hermeneutics, the event being the founding dynamic principle in the process of elaboration of new aesthetics and in literature ability to dote the world with new signs and meanings. This work ultimately deals with the specific function of speech that hampers the cultural assimilation and the artistic and fictional communication of the event. This aspect of the analysis, after pointing to the problematic relationship between society and the present event, suggests the idea of a common legacy, looking onto future uses of the event

Full textCe travail de recherche analyse la figure du camp de concentration dans le travail de Giorgio Agamben. Cet examen porte notamment sur l’extension conceptuelle réalisée par cet auteur, faisant du camp de concentration un paradigme qui lui permet d’analyser la structure de la politique en Occident. Afin de montrer comment Agamben comprend et utilise la notion de camp de concentration, ses références théoriques doivent être explorées. Ainsi, le travail d’Hannah Arendt sur le totalitarisme et les camps de concentration ainsi que les apports de Michel Foucault en ce qui concerne la biopolitique et le racisme d’Etat sont analysés. Dans cette étude, nous proposons une clé de lecture qui montre comment, au sein de la notion de camp de concentration comme espace d’exception, s’articulent des notions juridiques, biopolitiques et historiques, qui permettent à Agamben de révéler le fonctionnement de la structure politique. Ainsi, la figure de l’homo sacer, de la vie nue, et du musulman prennent une place fondamentale dans une réflexion philosophique qui cherche à éclairer la place et le poids du camp de concentration dans l’œuvre d’Agamben
This research analyzes the figure of the concentration camp in Giorgio Agamben’s work. It focuses on the conceptual extension performed by the author, turning the concentration camp into a paradigm that allows him to analyze the structure of politics in the Western world. In order to show how Agamben defines and uses the notion of the concentration camp, it is necessary to study his philosophical references. Thus, the work of Hannah Arendt on totalitarianism and concentration camps, as well as the contributions of Michel Foucault on biopolitics and state racism, are examined. This research sets forth an interpretation of the articulations of legal, biopolitical and historical notions at stake in the concentration camp as a place of exception, allowing Agamben to expose the functioning of political structures. Thereby, the figures of the homo sacer, of bare life and of the Muslim, become crucial in a philosophical reflection that seeks to take stock of the importance of the concentration camp in Agamben’s work
Dupoux, Domitille. "Dynamique du ressassement : les récits concentrationnaires de Jorge Semprun." Lyon 2, 2008. http://theses.univ-lyon2.fr/documents/lyon2/2008/dupoux_d.
Full textFaced with the difficulty of expressing the reality of concentration camps, which traditional historical testimonies have failed to resolve, a few survivors have refashioned their individual experiences into literary representations. Several forms of writing have been used, one of which being ressassement, or the use of excessive repetition. One finds it in the works of Jorge Semprun, who since his return from Buchenwald, has been pushing the limits of language used to describe the camps. Although ressassement is an essential characteristic of twentieth century literature, Semprun’s choice to endlessly repeat an almost unbearable reality seems rather problematic. In contrast to the egotism with which it is usually attached, ressassement, in Semprun’s narratives, is used to express the communal aspects of the camp experience, in particular the temporal chaos, the omnipresence of death, as well as the experience of loss and absence. However, a writer who uses ressassement risks re-living the trauma again and again, thus potentially succumbing to the danger of memory writing. Semprun accepts this risk, but avoids trapping himself in the cycle of self-absorption by focusing his repetitive writing on a few deportees who did not return from the camps ; he goes on further to transform ressassement into an act of survival and resistance. Spanning unsolved tensions between presence and absence, and between life and death, ressassement finally draws us to reflect on its spatial dimension, and on the complex representation it proposes of the geographical space of the camp and of the textual and literary space of the camp narrative

Full textDuring the South African War of 1899-1902 captured civilians were directed by the British army into military controlled zones and into refugee camps which became known as concentration camps. Established near towns, mines and railway sidings these camps were separated along racial lines. The British forced black men, women and children through the violence of war into agricultural and military labour as a war resource, interning over 110,000 black civilians in concentration camps. Unlike Boer civilians who were not compelled to labour, the British forced black civilians into military labour through a policy of no work no food. According to recent scholarly work based only on the written archive, at least 20,000 black civilians died in these camps. This project uses these written archives together with archaeological surveys, excavations, and oral histories to uncover a history of seven such forced labour camps. This approach demonstrates that in constructing an understanding and a history of what happened in the forced labour camps, the written archive alone is limited. Through the work of archaeology which uncovers material evidence on the terrain and the remains of graves one can begin to envisage the scale an extent of the violence that characterized the experience of forced laborers in the 'black concentration camps' in the South African War.

Full textOn May 8th 1945, the Second World War ends in Europe. With the release of concentration camps, the unspeakable horror practised in those camps was revealed to the world. International aid was getting organized. If the extraction of dental gold from the dead detainees’ mouths and its internationally legalized exploitation were well known aspects on the dental level, admittedly oral experiments were also being carried out by Nazi doctors. However, these never involved SS dentists. Therefore, what was their role? Those practitioners were involved in operations of dental gold extraction in the camps, as well as in the extermination of mentally ill people and the physically handicapped, as part of the T4 Action. They also administered dental care to detainees since there were dental consulting rooms in larger camps, and the implementation of different branches of care in commando units. Indeed, a deportee suffering from dental problems was not considered as profitable for the Nazi war effort. Consequently, for the sake of preserving productivity, most of the deportees could receive dental care. Eventually, those Nazis, who also committed other crimes, were judged after the war and severely punished

Full textAn examination of the wartime correspondence of hundreds of Jewish individuals living or interned in France, citizens who denounced or advocated for them, and the response of French officials to these petitions reveals a multifarious discourse regarding who was capable of belonging to the French state. Letters from the camps of France offer an exceptionally rare window into the perceptions and self-conception of the interned as they engaged with friends, family, and colleagues, petitioned officials, demanded the restoration of their legal status, and endeavored to disprove accusations that they constituted a separate and unassimilable group. France experienced an immigration crisis and a period of intense political friction directly prior to the Second World War. These factors stirred anxiety over moral ‘degeneration’ and a perceived loss of socio-economic control, inspiring exclusionary policy and policing of immigrant and refugee communities.
This correspondence requested recognition and release, the provision of aid for the interned and their families, and for French and Jewish organizations to explain anti-Jewish measures. Within their letters and entreaties Jews in France consistently confirmed their loyalty and patriotism while decrying the abhorrent nature of the classification, ‘aryanization,’ arrest, and deportation measures. Within correspondence from the concentration camps traumatic violence, extreme deprivation, and the fervent need to acquire resources for survival (provisions, medicine, news) frequently took precedence. Internees pursued petition as part of their multi-pronged survival strategies. Although it is difficult to gauge intention within such a complex and controlled medium, the sense of shock present in the letters implies authors were often convinced their citizenship, service, or in the perilous case of the ‘ juifs étrangers’ their motivation to assimilate, held emancipatory power. While officials of the French State rarely responded directly to personal letters, these demands were taken up by leaders of Jewish organizations, the Union générale des Israélites de France, the Consistoire central, aid societies, and delegations of veterans and wives of prisoners, in their meetings with Vichy and Commissariat général aux questions juives officials. These petitions mobilized familial, friendship, and professional networks in their defense, and give insight into how strategies of adaptation and perceptions of the persecution shifted over time.
Hundreds of letters of personal correspondence and petition between camp internees and Jewish and French officials from the Drancy, Beaune-la-Rolande, Compiègne, and Pithiviers camps are primarily found in Centre de Documentation Juive Contemporaine collections in Paris, the USHMM camp collections, and Yad Vashem. Dozens of letters written by Jewish and non-Jewish individuals and organizations advocating for the rights of the Jewish community can be found in the Archives Nationales- Commissariat général aux questions juives collections.

Full textGeneral objective: to study the influence of concentration camp hardships on family socialization and on the personalization of the descendants born after the end of the war. 4 themes are presented as follows: 1) biographical dynamics of the prisoner; 2) existence of a family sub-culture; 3) values passed on to the descendants; 4) characteristics of the descendants ‘self-image. Methodology: qualitative study of 15 families with the support of semi-directed interviews and questionnaires. Quantitative study of 60 (other) descendants with the support of questionnaires. This work shows that the passing on has not simply been produced by the direct relations between the parent and the descendant but depends especially on the level of integration of the parent into the prisoners community. The descendants have built up their social identities by being confronted with a cultural heritage, which might be passed on more or less deliberately. One notices the same phenomenon of social repetition and political passing on, but I have emphasized that the descendants who have had to interact permanently and differently with 3 experiential levels; -the calling-up of facts, memories, values associated with imprisonment; -the everyday way of life specific to the families; -the social context of the prisoners community with its emblems, its symbols, its rituals, have become aware

Full textIt is necessary to con si der urban phenomena at the same time as the results of agglomeration such as "center-periphery" but as the complex game of population pendulum movements and fancier annuity. So we approach urban analysis enriched by the New Economy Geographical provides a dynamic analysis of urban development particularly in China. We wanted to take advantage of these enhancements to renew theoretical reflections and analysis on the rapid growth of urban systems in China: We calculate the phenomena of industrial concentration using criteria Ellison-Glaeser, we find that the concentration may let think a phenomenon "center periphery" developed in the New Economic Geography. We look more closely differentiated urban evolutions in China, we observe that the bigger cities grow strongly over smaller, we see a new phenomenon of agglomeration on the urban reality of China. The agglomeration of economic activities to the east of China has a strong influence on the structure of the urban system and the evolution ofthe urban system in China

Full textIn February 1939, about 300 000 Spanish militians and 8000 international brigades entered France by the Pyrenees-Orientales. Most of them are placed in camps. This work examines the different means of control instored by Ministry of Interior and military authorities and the various measures of exclusion taken against the most suspicious people. The first part deals with the individual and collective measures of surveillance in the camps of the Retirada. The second tellsabout the reinforcement of this system from the war declaration to the armistice of June 1940. Finally the last part questions the resumptions and disruptions of the system under 3rd republic in Vichy until the Liberation in Southern French camps. Through the story of these Spanish refugees, this thesis focuses on the modernization of police controls of foreigners registered in the National Security files of the 1930's. Through many sources of unpublished archives, from Republican origins to Vichy, the story of control, exclusion and repression of the unwanted foreigners is reconstituted in south of France and north Africa camps
Chiappone-Lucchesi, Magali. "La dramaturgie du témoignage chez Charlotte Delbo : une écriture de la spectralité." Thesis, Sorbonne Paris Cité, 2015. http://www.theses.fr/2015USPCA020.
Full textWhat is so particular about Charlotte Delbo’s theatre testimony ? Goal of this study is to shed light on a « writing of spectrality », sending us back to the evocation of the spectres of her memory which Delbo summons upon stage. The titles of two of her plays, Who will carry the word ? and A Scene played in the memory are revealing of an incomplete anamnesis for which no ending is possible. It translates through reelaboration, theatrical transposition and poetical and narrative fragments already written by the author following her return from Auschwitz– and we had to explore her archives in order to trace these re-writes. Nevertheless, and it is a strange fact, the spectral nature of Delbo’s theatre also comes from the visitations of ghost-like characters from her theatrical library which come to haunt her in the swamps of Auschwitz, messengers of a humanity to whom the very existence of theatre turns out to be a guarantee. Once Louis Jouvet’s secretary prior and – for a while – after her captivity, Charlotte Delbo therefore seems to talk with the « patron » within the inner lines of her theatrical and testimonial work. The dramaturgy of the testimony which arise from such a writing, through which the past never ceases to revisit the present, could be summed up as follows : the author remembers, thanks to her deep memory; she writes in memory of her friends so that we, readers and spectators, remember them ; and the spectres call to the living to keep their consciences awake. The effective absence of Charlotte Delbo’s use of dramatic language has convinced us to lead the present research which deals fundamentally with the dramatic work of the writer and her extremely rich relationship to theatre

Full textThe present sociological study examines the construction of the "enemy" within the concentration camp, an absolute social institution, through the comparison of two forms, taken in their different social, national, ideological and state context – on one hand, the camp of Rivesaltes and the French government and, on the other hand, the camp of Belene and the People's Republic of Bulgaria. Both institutions are analyzed with the assumption of "difference of degree," developed by the concept of "singularity " and " plurality " which allows to identify them in their political dimension as well as on the concrete institutional level.This study deals with the construction of the specific figure the "enemy" as a social actor starting from the social and political level and getting to the everyday life in both concentration camp forms. We analyzed the enemy figure, at first as a product of a dynamic facing a fundamental social transformation. We also took into account the main reasons of concentration forms occurrence as an integral part of this " social project ", and then we have analyzed the aforementioned reasons through everyday life.The camp institution has assured itself a degree of stability that has allowed it to fulfill its function in the dynamic transformation of society. This stability is ensured by the involvement of the individual in a series of circles, his submission to a specific form of power which transforms soundly his personal character and adjoin to his human being condition, but also defines him as an actor in a particular interactional universe. Finally, what is the role of the actor "enemy" in concentration camp life and what interactions different actors in the camps establish between themselves?

Full textThis study is based on a disturbing observation: the ignorance and repression of the (written) voice of survivors in commentary on the national socialist deportation and genocide. Dealing with 51 autobiographical accounts of Auschwitz in French, English, German and Italian, as well as with a large body of critical work, we confront the communication of experience deemed necessary by the survivors with the "silence" that characterizes a great number of exegeses. However, we are not concerned with decoding the experience itself, but only with its representation or the way in which it is expressed. Following the brief presentation of the historical setting of the accounts, the first section of our study, while assessing the critical discourse on writing of the nazi deportation and genocide, as well as the biographical profiles of the authors of the accounts chosen for the study, is devoted to establishing the distinction between writing and experience, which gives the survivor accounts their literary quality or literarily, this concept, presented hypothetically, is confirmed empirically in the second section of our analysis, where the reader discovers the vast descriptive universe created by the survivors of Auschwitz, that a minority of commentators, in the case of the most well-known texts, have attempted to interpret. The representation of Auschwitz is not limited to simple description of persons, places and situations, and if these remain predominant in many cases, the survivor accounts also transmit their message through less direct channels, that we may call symbols and a symbolic system. It is thus, as we see in the third section of the study, that the survivors have succeeded in representing that which is difficult to describe literally: the process of genocide. Nevertheless, if the survivor accounts are capable of representing or even transcending experience through symbolic expression, the same cannot be said of those attempts at symbolization, found in critical discourse, which either lead to empty remarks on "silence" and "unspeakability", or erase the particularity of survival in Auschwitz with a jumble of generalities about "Auschwitz", used as a nebulous symbol of the Shoah, of all Nazi crime, or even of barbarity in the 20th century

Full textThe doctoral thesis analyzes the affair of the concentration camps for Jews opened up by the decree n. 5 of 30 November 1943 from the minister of the Interior of the Italian Social Republic, Guido Buffarini Guidi. By this measure the republican government entrusted the peripheral authorities of the ministry of the Interior, prefectures and police headquarters, the task of arresting and interning all the Jews present in Italy. The carrying out of the orders was influenced by the war background of two-year-period 1943-1945: by the German occupation of Italy, which followed the armistice of 8 September, the German authorities kept the RSI under a tight control. Notwithstanding the German interference into the Italian political affairs, the local authorities of Salò seemed to hold on a degree of autonomy and initiative to enforce the anti-Jewish measures decided by the government. In this situation, the concentration camps played a key role and act here below as a magnifier for the study of the “Jewish-question” in the RSI. Through the analysis of these camps the features of the state anti-Semitism of Salò can be recognized, as an extension of that one of the previous fascist regime, as well as the political dynamics that were at the bottom of the “collaboration” between Italian and German authorities can be deepened. As Denis Pechanski notices about the French case, the concentration camps are in this way “the cornerstone of the mechanism of deportation of the Jews”
