This study examines the camp system that existed in Soviet Russia from 1918 to 1923. For decades, this little-studied chapter of Russian history, revealing the complex period during the formation of Soviet power, remained largely unnoticed by historians. Meanwhile, the Bolshevik camps of the Revolution and Civil War had a significant impact on the formation and subsequent development of the entire penitentiary system in the USSR.

Using new archival material, this monograph analyzes the activities of the forced labor camp administration, characterizes their personnel, and examines the organization of prisoner labor. Considerable attention is paid to everyday life in the camps, with a detailed analysis of the social and demographic composition of prisoners, as well as the regime and conditions of their detention.

This book is intended for historians, lawyers, sociologists, political scientists, and anyone interested in the complex and controversial chapters of Russian history.
