[edit] Criticism
Juan Cole, a professor of Middle Eastern history at the University of Michigan, criticized the Middle East Quarterly after it included an article critical of his work [11]. He wrote in Salon.com: "It publishes scurrilous attacks on people. There's no scholarship. It's a put-up job ..." <ref>Goldberg, Michelle. Mau-mauing the Middle East Salon.com, September 30, 2002.</ref>
Many tenured professors publish in the Middle East Quarterly. Cole made his statement while editor of the competing International Journal of Middle East Studies.
