Question

How does McCarthyism relate to Ray Bradbury's Fahrenheit 451?

Answer 1

I have not read this novel, but there are a number of online study guides, and quite a few other resources on the web that can help you with this question.  Most of them have quite a bit of good information.  Have a look at these, and you should get some help with your work.  If you do a search you will find many other links.  Best of luck with it.  

Answer 2

i think that since mccarthyism is a term describing the intense anti-communist suspicion and where people were accused of being Communists or communist sympathizers and became the subject of aggressive investigations and in fahrenheit 451 people were very suspicious and quick to accuse others of owning books.  In both of these people became terrified that they would be accused and accused other people. i hope that made sense!
