INTERNED Meaning and
Definition
-
Interned is the past tense and past participle form of the verb "intern." It refers to the act of confining or imprisoning someone, typically during times of war or political unrest, within a specific location or camp, often against their will and usually for a prolonged period. The purpose of internment is often to isolate and control individuals or a group of people who are considered a threat or deemed to pose a risk to society.
Internment can occur on both an individual and collective level. In the former, it refers to the detainment of a single person for various reasons, such as suspected involvement in criminal activities or posing a national security threat. On the collective level, it has been historically employed to immobilize large groups of people based on their ethnicity, nationality, or political affiliations.
During World War II, for instance, countless individuals of Japanese, German, or Italian descent were interned by the United States government as a result of discriminatory policies and fears of espionage. Similarly, in times of political unrest, individuals who oppose the ruling regime may be interned to suppress dissent and maintain control.
Overall, interned describes the action of forcibly confining individuals or groups against their will within a specific location or camp, often as a result of conflict, political circumstances, or national security concerns.
