Hocking and the dilemmas of modernity

Y. H. Krikorian

pp. 48-58

Many are deeply aware that contemporary civilization is in travail. The root causes of this condition and the patterns of life that will finally emerge from the current political, ideological, and religious conflicts are highly ambiguous. Professor William Ernest Hocking in his book The Coming World Civilization 1 approaches these problems with a fully developed philosophic system and after a rich experience of world cultures. His analysis is many-dimensional, presenting significant comments on contemporary civilization and finely integrating the threads of the discussion.
