The subject of Detente, Democracy and Dictatorship has been with us
since the breakdown of the Cold War and the termination of the
Soviet system, indeed, if not since the origins of Bolshevism. No
more vigorous critic of the uneasy co-existence of democracy and
dictatorship exists than the greatest writer that the Soviet era of
Russian history produced, Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn.This third edition
is based on major addresses, especially aimed at Americans,
delivered in 1975 in Washington, D.C. and New York, and again, in
1978, at Harvard University in Cambridge, all on the subject of
detente, democracy and dictatorship. It also includes
Solzhenitsyn's final 2007 interview with the German publication Der
Spiegel.These major statements are brilliant and forthright comment
on the risks of confusing ideology with diplomacy. But more than
that, they summarize the Soviet debacle, the theoretical
underpinnings, and distill Solzhenitsyn's multi-volumed
masterpiece, the Gulag Archipelago.
