William F. Marina as Teacher and Historian

Bill Marina (1936–2009) incorporated libertarian themes into an analysis of U.S. foreign policy that drew on the revisionist history of William Appleman Williams and the insurgent sociology of C. Wright Mills. The result was an eclectic critique of imperialism and defense of decentralization, along with erudite musings about China’s dynasties, Florida’s corporate syndicalism, and the people’s war known as the American Revolution.
