Excited to be using this book (Camps: A Global History of Mass Confinement, by Aidan Forth, U of Toronto Press, 2024) as one of the resources in my upper-level, HIST-POLI 3530 course (“The Concentration Camp”) at TRU this fall

Try looking at the be graph below and then arguing that the U.S. is not a military/police state. Over the years society has been sacrificed for security but has doing so made anyone more secure? #uspol #uspoli

Great to have my copy of this book, put together in honour of Lynne Viola, with the editors and chapter contributors all her former PhD students (mine is Chapter 5). Great work by MQUP on the cover, too

Fun to see my PhD supervisor’s first book featured in the wild, and in the labour section no less (Massy Books, Vancouver)
