Abstract

Leslie Fielder's critical essay "Hiss, Chambers, and the Age of Innocence" is discussed as a part of an extended ideological struggle among liberal intellectuals for hegemonic control over the postwar settlement. Alfred Hitchcock's "Rear Window" is examined in relation to the postwar settlement.
