WOW! The level that democracy was genuinely regarded for in the USSR never fails to make me think the true possibility of a better world :'). The fact that prisoners were allowed to have some level of say in how they organized themselves is quite astounding. Even better is that there was involvement from civilians (who i imagine would be locals sometimes), to actually interact with these people and be a part of their rehabilitation.
