This episode discusses the philosophical history of rebellion from the age of enlightenment to the contemporary times in a literary review for 'the rebel' by Albert Camus and Animal Farm by George Orwell. The object of the episode is to understand what is rebellion, and what is it that causes rebellion to be meaningful or desirable to society.
