This lecture covers the period from the McCarthy era in the 1950s, characterized by anti-communist hysteria and the House Un-American Activities Committee, to the covert CIA operations in Iran in 1953, including the overthrow of Mohammad Mossadegh's government. It also touches on the CIA's role in politics and the Congo Crisis in the early 1960s.
