The Inquisition in Hollywood: Politics in the Film Community, 1930-1960
Ceplair, Larry, and Steven Englund. The Inquisition in Hollywood: Politics in the Film Community, 1930-1960. Garden City, NY: Anchor Press/Doubleday, 1980.
Why this matters here
Ceplair and Englund document political pressure, blacklist practices, and the institutional consequences of suspicion within Hollywood. This historical study supports the chapter's account of how membership in a legitimate conversation can be narrowed; it does not make the chapter's broader ethical judgment for it.
