Isi artikelGeorge Kennan, the dean of American diplomats, called "The Gulag Archipelago", Alexander Solzhenitsyn's account of Stalin's terror, "the most powerful single indictment of a political regime ever to be levied in modern times". By bearing witness, Solzhenitsyn certainly did as much as any artist could to bring down the Soviet system, a monstrosity that crushed millions of lives. His courage earned him imprisonment and exile. But his death on August 3rd (see our obituary, page 82) prompts a question. Who today speaks truth to power-not only in authoritarian or semi-free countries such as Russia and China but in the West as well?
