The Solzhenitsyn affair refers to the controversy surrounding Russian writer Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, particularly his exile from the Soviet Union in 1974 and his subsequent criticism of the regime. His works, notably "The Gulag Archipelago," exposed the brutal realities of the Soviet labor camp system, leading to significant international acclaim and condemnation of the Soviet government. The affair highlighted the clash between artistic freedom and state control, as well as the broader struggle for human rights in the Soviet context. Solzhenitsyn's return to Russia in 1994 marked a significant moment in post-Soviet history.
