I think rather than calling it a theme, we should call it one of the main conflicts. The cruelty with which Wiesel and his fellow prisoners are treated by their captors shows that we often conflict with those around us. There are many examples of how Wiesel is treated badly; however, this conflict also emphasizes the conflict of "man vs himself" since Wiesel and the way in which he survives this captivity, show how much control he has over his own emotions and feelings.
