= Cultural conservatism

=
Hartman has worked on the history of the culture wars in America, with a particular emphasis on the ways in which conservative ideas have been disseminated and popularized in American culture. In his book, A War for the Soul of America: A History of the Culture Wars he explained the significance of America's struggle over the unprecedented social changes since the 1960s. He further highlighted the emergence of social issues like homosexuality, abortion, and feminism and the politicization of these issues among conservative Americans. Jonathan Bartho commended the book for capturing several crucial historical and social phenomena and commented, "A War for the Soul of America is an excellent exploration of many aspects of the culture wars. It is particularly enlightening in the way it demonstrates that each of the major battlegrounds were highly resonant issues". Additionally, Timothy Lacy acknowledged this book for providing a new perspective to the history of the culture wars and noted that "Hartman’s provocative framing of the Culture Wars squares an objective synthesis of the characters and issues of the period. His objects of study are not unfamiliar to historians of the period, but Hartman’s narrative changes the direction of past scholarship."




= Education

=
Hartman's work on US history has provided particular insights into the post-war as well as recent educational changes. He examined the educational history of the post-war era and also described the genealogy of progressive education in his book, Education and the Cold War: The Battle for the American School. Mary Lopez expressed her admiration for the comprehensiveness of this book and stated "Hartman’s work provides an impressive chronicling of the many strains of educational theory and conflict that have shaped American education through much of the twentieth century". Thomas Fiala and Deborah Duncan-Owens praised the book in their review, stating that Hartman "takes on the daunting task of unpacking the complex milieu of social, political, and economic factors influencing education during this period."
In Hartman's early research, he investigated various factors that influenced the development of federal social policies for children and suggested its outcomes in the near future. Having elucidated the impacts of curriculum wars in American history and highlighted their consequences on the development of national identity, he analyzed the impact of neoliberalism on the humanities and described several challenges it poses to the curriculum of American culture. Furthermore, he discussed the study of whiteness in the United States, highlighting its increasing importance in academic disciplines, as well as the critique that researchers examining this area have encountered.




= Karl Marx, Marxism, the American Left, Marx reception

=
Some of Hartman's scholarship has focused on the American reception of Karl Marx. His interests in Karl Marx have led him to research about the history of the American left, with a book chapter titled, "Against the Liberal Tradition: An Intellectual History of the American Left". He has also contributed to efforts to understand the contemporary left, with an article in the Washington Post about the popular podcast, Chapo Trap House, “The Millennial Left’s War Against Liberalism.” His research about Karl Marx and the American reception of Marx led him to write two articles on the occasion of Marx's 200th birthday in 2018: "Marx at 200: Just Getting Started," and "Marx’s America." He has also written about the resonances between Marxism and conservative libertarianism, in an article titled, "The Master Class on the Make.' He is also the author of a book chapter, "Rethinking Karl Marx: American Liberalism from the New Deal to the Cold War," which argues that the success of New Deal liberalism had as much to do with limiting the favorable reception of Marx in the postwar era as did the Red Scare.
