Abstract:Obdobje petdesetih let prejšnjega stoletja je Združene države Amerike pretresal tako imenovan »lov na čarovnice«, ki ga je vodil senator Joseph McCarthy. Šlo je za preganjanje komunizma ter iskanje komunističnih vohunov, ki naj bi se infiltrirali v vladne službe Združenih držav Amerike. Preganjanja nekonformnih skupin ali posameznikov so bila prisotna skozi celotno zgodovino. Pregon čarovništva in raznih herezij je od 12. stoletja naprej vodila Cerkev. V času svetovnih vojn je svet pretresal pregon Židov, Slovanov in Ciganov v nacistični Nemčiji ter čistke političnih nasprotnikov v stalinistični Sovjetski zvezi. Človeštvo je bojevalo svete vojne v preteklosti in to se nadaljuje tudi danes, pa naj gre za vero, narod, domovino ali pravico. Vedno obstaja neka ogroženost, ki jo nato spretni demagoški politiki podpihujejo in zahtevajo boj proti njej. Podobno je z ameriško vojno proti terorizmu, ki je bila odgovor predsednika Busha in njegove administracije na teroristične napade 11. septembra 2001. V vojno proti terorizmu je Združenim državam Amerike uspelo potegniti ves svet in povzročiti splošni strah med ljudmi. V tem obdobju strahu je ameriško Ministrstvo za pravosodje sprejelo štiri memorandume, ki so Bushevi administraciji zagotovili pravno podlago za ignoriranje mednarodnega prava, pogodb in domače ustave ter statutov.

Title:McCARTHYISM AND RELATED EVENTS THROUGHOUT HISTORY
Abstract:The so-called “witch hunt”, led by senator Joseph McCarthy, was shaking the United States of America in the era of fifties of the preceding century. It was all about expelling of communism and the search of communist spies that were supposed to be infiltrating themselves in governmental services of United States of America. The expelling of nonconformist groups or individuals was present through the entire history. The Church guided the chase of witchcraft and different heresies ever since the 12th Century. The chase of Jews, Slavs and Gypsies in Nazi Germany and the purges of political opponents in Stalin’s Soviet Union were shaking up the world within time of World Wars. Humankind was fighting holy wars in the past and it continues fighting them in the present, may it be religion, nation, homeland or entitlement. A certain endangerment always exists and it is stimulated even more by skilled demagogic politicians in order to claim action toward her. It is similar with American war towards terrorism, which was a reply of President Bush and his administration on terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. United States of America succeeded in drawing the entire world into the war towards terrorism and in giving a rise to the general fear among people. The American Ministry of Justice accepted four memoranda in this period of fear, which assured the administration of president Bush a legal foundation for disregarding of international law, contracts, in-country constitution and statutes.
