The Disputed Legacy of Sidney Hook examines the sixty-year career
of one of the foremost public intellectuals in the United States.
Sidney Hook's convictions were widely disseminated through books,
academic journals, newspapers articles, lectures, and several
organizations that he founded. Hook's legacies include being a
leading Marxist-Leninist scholar, his long-standing commitment to
secular humanism, his legacy as a legendary polemicist, his
cultural conservatism if not neoconservatism, and his defense of
democracy and John Dewey's pragmatic and Cold War liberalism.
Bullert concludes that Hook's core philosophy is best typified by
his Deweyan pragmatism, vigilant anti-communism, and secular
humanism.
