User talk:Pseudo-Richard/Two Hundred Years Together

Two Hundred Years Together is a book by Alexander Solzhenitsyn which chronicles the uneasy relationships between Russians and Russian Jews.

In this book, Solzhenitsyn deals with the assertion that Jews were as much perpetrators of the repression as its victims. The book contains three chapters that discuss the role of Jews in the genocide of the Bolshevik Revolution and secret police purges of Soviet Russia.

Critics of Two Hundred Years Together fall into two opposing camps: some find him guilty of pro-Jewish sentiment; many more, however, accuse him of varying degrees of anti-Semitism; and others consider him a typical Russian nationalist.

Jewish leaders and some historians have been vociferous in their criticism of the book, and have questioned Solzhenitsyn's motives in writing it, accusing him of factual inaccuracies and of fanning the flames of anti-semitism in Russia.
