You need to install the following packages and Python modules first:
apt-get install python-setuptools python-dev gcc g++
pip install wheel
You can then:
pip install python-csv
If you want to install csv for Python 3, then you'll need to install python3-setuptools and python3-dev and then pip3 install csv.
