Spy Conference Returns to Raleigh
RALEIGH — A “who’s who” of scholars and intelligence experts will gather Aug. 31-Sept. 2 for the third annual Raleigh International Spy Conference at the N.C. Museum of History. The theme for the 2005 event is “Old Spies, New Threats.” Topics will include a comparison of claims made by Sen. Joseph McCarthy to newly available declassified information, the influence of the Left on Hollywood activists, an analysis of the decline of the Communist Party U.S.A. from 1930 to 1945, and the emerging danger of Chinese espionage in the United States.
