This episode we discuss the gulag's camp guards, criminal prisoner class, ways to survive, and, finally, methods of escape.
The Gulag (Chief Administration of Corrective Labor Camps) was a network of labor camps and prisons spread throughout the Soviet Union. Between 1918 and 1956, 1.2 to 1.7 million people would die within the camp system.
This is part four of a multiple part series on the Gulag camps. For the next part, I will conclude the series. After I have released all of the episodes, I will release them all as one part. If you enjoy the show, please consider following and rating wherever you get your podcasts! Cheers.

The Gulag (Chief Administration of Corrective Labor Camps) was a network of labor camps and prisons spread throughout the Soviet union. Between 1918 and 1956, 1.2 to 1.7 million people would die within the camp system. In today's episode, I discuss Karl Marx and provide an ideological foundation for the Gulag system.
This is part one of a multiple part series. I plan on releasing shorter episodes in more digestible chunks, and, after they have all been released, adding them all together to form one long episode.

Liberty, equality, and consent of the governed, the last three ideas that come to mind when I think of Syria. Due to the country's chaos, brokenness, and authoritarianism today, I may not be that far off. For Faisal and the Syrian people living over 100 years ago, I would be. Although the First World War left millions dead and many more displaced, hope for a constitutional monarchy that relied on principles of decentralized government that preserved the rights of minorities was found in the son of a king. With the help of popular self-determination, Wilson’s Fourteen Points, and the openness of the Paris Peace Conference, Faisal, son of Hussein bin Ali, and the popularly elected Syrian Congress, lead the Syrian-Arab nationalist movement to found their own country, the Syrian-Arab Kingdom, against the power of French Imperialism.
