Williamjames Hoffer, PhD
Dr. Williamjames Hoffer teaches a number of subjects including legal, economic and military history all with a view towards understanding how governments change and are affected by change with a focus on the United States. As both a lawyer and historian, he combines a number of different techniques not necessarily to find answers, but to start asking good questions. He brings this perspective to his research as well, which concentrates on political and legal history in the modern U.S. though future projects will look earlier. He believes that universities are the greatest contributors to human advancement and is very pleased to be a small part of that effort.
