Williamson Evers, once a contributor to the Journal of Libertarian Studies, is now a US Defense Department employee and adviser to the Ministry of Education in Iraq for the occupation. The Christian Science Monitor quotes him in this context: “”the Ministry of Education under the US-led coalition government removed any content considered ‘controversial,’ including the 1991 Gulf War; the Iran-Iraq war; [UN sanctions;] and all references to Israelis, Americans, or Kurds. ‘Entire swaths of 20th-century history have been deleted,’ says Bill Evers, a US Defense Department employee, and one of three American advisers to the Ministry of Education.”
His articles in the JLS:
- Law of Omissions and Neglect of Children, The

- Social Contract: A Critique (”In some respects, there is little difference for Hobbes between government instituted by social contract and those instituted by conquest... Without Hobbe’s peculiar ambiguousness as to whether the will is a moral faculty or part of a mechanical apparatus...Hobbes’ theory of political obligation cannot stand.”)
- Specialization and the Division of Labor In the Social Thought of Plato and Rousseau
