Robert Griffith concludes that McCarthy's enormous power owed less to the force of the senator's unique personality than to the issues and symbols with which he identified and that McCarthy was the product, not the progenitor, of the post-war politics of anticommunism. For this edition, Griffith has provided a new introduction covering the recent literature on McCarthyism and the changing views on the topic.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"University of Massachusetts Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52523205394712,"sku":"9780870235559","price":25.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-politics-of-fear-joseph-r-mccarthy-and-the-senate-paperback-softback-9780870235559","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
