Arthur Miller’s The Crucible, a partially fictionalized play interpretation of the Salem witch trials, was written to resemble the American government’s actions during the Red Scare, Mccarthy’s “witch hunts” for communists committing traitorous acts within the government.

As The Crucible began with an actual witchery incident, The Red Scare began with accounts of real communism and treason within the American government. John McCarthy’s speech, which began the Communist hunt, states facts about government workers who held obvious communism traits, such as one man he mentioned, Gustave Duran, who was labeled “a notorious international communist” but nonetheless, was “assistant secretary of state in charge of Latin American affairs”, and once he was convicted of communism, he left for “chief of Cultural Activities Section in the office of the assistant secretary general of the United Nations”(McCarthy).
