An image database about the McCarthy Era, documenting "the whole breadth of experiences from this period of which the anti-red hysteria was one symptom." Contains about 300 photographs and political cartoons. From librarian Leo Robert Klein at CUNY. http://newman.baruch.cuny.edu/digital/redscare/default.htm Topics: Photograph Collections: History, Political Parties & Theories, United States History Last updated Jun 22, 2007 Senate Committee on Governmental Affairs: Committee Prints, 107th Congress
This U.S. Senate committee report offers two unrelated but important resources: the text of the five-volume set of the McCarthy hearings of 1953-54, and a report about the scandal-besmirched Enron Corporation exploring "what could have been done, if anything, to detect Enron's problems or to prevent its failure." Caution: in describing the targets of his enquiries, Senator Joseph McCarthy used coarse language that may not be appropriate for younger audiences. http://www.gpo.gov/congress/senate/senate12cp107.html Topics: Corruption & Fraud, Political Parties & Theories, Politics by Place, United States History Last updated May 7, 2003 |
