Best Answer

Arthur Miller wrote "The Crucible" an an analogy, to demonstrate the similarities between blacklisting (he was blacklisted during the Red Scare) and the abuses of the Salem Witch trials of 1692.

Themes similar to both the hunt for Communists and the hunt for witches:

- guilt by association

- the presumption of guilt rather than innocence

- the conflicting agendas of public officials

- the hidden motivations of witnesses

- the obsession of a society with an unproven, unseen threat

- the power of a government used unfairly against individuals
