A Concise Companion to American Studies
A Companion to American Studies offers a variety of approaches to the new American Studies, including its relations to allied fields–Ethnic Studies, Feminist, Queer and Latin American Studies. Divided into four parts, the work addresses foundations and backgrounds to the field, different theories of the “new” American Studies, and issues from globalization and technology to transnationalism and post-colonialism. Combining historical essays with theoretical and polemical issues, this Companion is designed to provoke discussion and help students and scholars at all levels develop their own approaches to the diverse areas included in contemporary American Studies.
