This book tracks real-world fears appearing in the movies--Nazi agents, Japanese-American spies, Communist Party subversives, Islamic sleeper cells--as well as the science-fiction threats that play to the same fears, such as alien body-snatchers and android doppelgangers. The work also examines fears inspired by World War I German spies, the Japanese-American internment and the McCarthyite witch-hunts and shows how these issues, and others, played out on screen.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"McFarland \u0026 Company","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47603214811287,"sku":"9780786446483","price":3725.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780786446483.webp?v=1775014660","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/screen-enemies-of-the-american-way-political-paranoia-about-nazis-communists-saboteurs-terrorists-and-body-snatching-aliens-in-film-and-television-9780786446483","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
