This essay focuses on the moral aspect of Alexander Solzhenitsyn's political thought. It constitutes an extensive review and analysis of his work in the field of literature as well as social and political criticism. The first part deals with Solzhenitsyn's critique of Marxism, which remained for many years the main target of his attacks. The second part looks at Solzhenitsyn's historical analysis of the Soviet Communist experience. Subsequently, the essay examines the critique of the West expressed by the Russian writer during his exile in Europe and America. The last part deals with Solzhenitsyn's perception of post-Communism Russia and some of his major propositions for the future.
