So in the case of the McCarthy hearings, you\u2019d want to discuss\u2014briefly\u2014the Cold War and the American paranoia about Communism. Then discuss why\u2014according to Rauch\u2014this is a bad thing. Rauch uses a philosophical rationale to defend his thesis, so you should do the same. In other words, don\u2019t just say,\u00a0\u201cThe McCarthy hearings were unjust because censorship is bad.\u201d\u00a0Rather, talk about the roots of fundamentalism and its objectives and why they are anathema to the development of human knowledge. Your example can be political, religious, academic, whatever you want (Hint: if you choose an example that\u2019s obviously offensive such as hate speech, you will have richer material to defend rather than something more black and white, like banning books; but the choice is yours).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Remember this quote as you write:\u00a0A no-offense society is a no-knowledge society.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>When you use Rauch\u2019s ideas, please cite him (MLA format).
