History scholars fight present war
Growing numbers of American historians are so worried that the Bush
administration is ignoring the lessons of the 20th century, and
even the last 2,000 years, that they are signing petitions,
marching against the war in Iraq, and holding teach-ins across the
country.
The Bush administration is "ignoring the established pattern of
what destroys great empires - the eventual reliance on military
power over economic and cultural dominance," said Van Gosse, one of
the activist historians and a professor at Franklin & Marshall
College. "This happened to the Romans, to the British."
Those who view historians as irrelevantly stuck in the musty past
might be doing a double-take these days.
These academics have mobilized into a national organization called
Historians Against the War. They wrote a petition decrying
the recent "egregious curtailment" of civil liberties, and
organized teach-ins on college campuses across the country this
week, writes Philadelphia Inquirer.
