Joel Hayward Biography

Joel Hayward is one of the most popular and richest Historian who was born on May 27, 1964 in Christchurch, Canterbury, New Zealand.

Joel Hayward FRHistS FRSA (born 1964) is a New Zealand-born British “noted scholar of war and strategy”, writer and Muslim poet whom the daily newspaper Al Kaleej calls “a world authority on international conflict and strategy”. He is best known for his published books and articles on strategic and security matters, including the use of air power, his 2003 biography of Horatio Lord Nelson, his writing and teaching on the Quranic (Islamic) concepts of war, strategy and conflict, and his works of fiction and poetry.

Hayward’s 1991 prize-winning M.A. thesis was submitted in 1993 yet was unavailable for public study until 1999. When it became available, it ignited controversy. Hayward was accused of advancing arguments which gave credence to Holocaust deniers. In 2000, at the request of the New Zealand Jewish Council, the University of Canterbury convened a “Working Party” which issued a report admonishing the university for inadequately supervising Hayward’s work. The report found that Hayward’s thesis “demonstrates impressive industry and intelligence” and did not “establish dishonesty” on his part, but it was also “seriously flawed”. Subsequent to the issuance of the Working Party’s report, the university apologized to the New Zealand Jewish community, as Hayward also had earlier in the year. Hayward has always repudiated the errors in his thesis, saying that they were the result of inadequate scholarly preparation for such a complex topic, but Holocaust deniers initially cited the thesis as evidence of academic support for their positions. In 2000, Holocaust denier David Irving praised Hayward’s work as a “landmark in the turning of the tide in the favour of historical revisionism”.
