Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents the transcripts of hearings held by the US Senate to investigate charges made by Senator McCarthy against Secretary of the Army Robert T. Stevens and others. A central event of the hearings was the presentation of a document alleging misconduct by staff members of the McCarthy committee. Stevens asserted this document was meant to intimidate him into supporting McCarthy's baseless accusations of communist infiltration within the Army. When the committee was unable to substantiate the charges, McCarthy shifted focus from the Army to the committee's counsel, Roy Cohn, and chief investigator, Francis P. Carr, suggesting that they were communist sympathizers. The hearings exposed McCarthy's tactics of intimidation, deception, and fabrication, leading to a decline in his influence and ultimate censure by the Senate. This book provides valuable insights into the nature of McCarthyism and the fragility of institutions when confronted by demagoguery and political opportunism.
