Marshall Hodgson Then and Now

Hodgson, the man of conscience makes academics uneasy. As well he should. Yet his moral commitment, thevery thing that for so long made him a semi-pariah in academia, is a beacon of hope to a new generation ofreaders interested in alternatives to the present state of the post-9/11 Middle East field. A Quaker pacifist whowas interned in Camp Elkton, Oregon for refusing to serve in World War II, Hodgson was a man of principle andcourage whose quirky intelligence produced The Venture of Islam, a three volume textbook history of Islamiccivilization.
