  The Chronicle: 11/8/2002: Sidney Hook, an Intellectual Street Fighter, Reconsidered
The conference, "Sidney Hook Reconsidered: A Centennial Celebration," held at the Graduate School and University Center of the City University of New York, made national headlines in June when four of its scheduled participants announced their withdrawal to protest the participation of Cornel West, a professor of religion at Princeton University.
Whether the different dimensions of Hook's thought hang together or come apart, which ones remain relevant today, and where Hook belongs in the intellectual history of the 20th century were some of the questions explored at the recent conference.
The fact that Hook saw Soviet Communism not only as a threat to Western democracies but as a negation of Marxist thought -- and until his death regarded Marx as a "great figure in the calendar of human freedom" -- did not keep conservatives from embracing the philosopher as one of their own.

 Fearless Sidney Hook by Thomas Main - Policy Review, No. 120   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-02)
Hook’s understanding of Marxism was in itself a complicated combination of opinions: For most of his career he rejected nearly every idea characteristic of Marxism and abhorred regimes that designated themselves as Marxist, but he still respected Marx as a democrat and a philosopher.
Hook’s writing was always intense, but when he wrote on anti-communism it could be with the urgency of someone calling life-saving instructions to a drowning victim.
Hook’s readers have known all along that he passed through a radical phase in his youth, but the detail of his thought from this period was generally unknown because the mature Hook never cared to expand on it.
