Summary:
The Trial of Alger Hiss, The Trial of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, THE SITUATION of J. Robert Oppenheimer. At the height from the frosty Battle, American democracy was challenged with the anti-Communist atmosphere from the McCarthy period. In the Name of Security re-opens three famous spy instances that rocked America between 1948 and 1954: Alger Hiss, Julius & Ethel Rosenberg, and J. Robert Oppenheimer. Each hour-long program combines dramatic re-enactments based on first trial transcripts, archival materials, new evidence, the most recent assessments of American historians and scientists, and the commentaries of relatives and friends from the accused.
