The goal of the book's contributors is a less insular, more trans-national, comparative approach to American Studies, one that questions dominant American myths rather than canonizes them. Articulating new ways to think about American Studies, these essays demonstrate how diverse the field has become. Contributors are concerned with cross-cultural communication, race and gender, global and local identities, and the complex tensions between symbolic and political economies. Their essays explore, among other topics, the construction of "foreign" peoples and cultures; the notion of borders-territorial, racial, economic, and sexual; the "multilingual reality" of the United States; the place of the Mexican-American War in U.S. history; and the significance of Tiger Woods in today's global market of consumption. Together, the essays propose a renewed vision of the United States' role in the world and how American Studies scholarship can address that vision. Each contributor includes a sample syllabus showing how the issues discussed in individual essays can be brought into the classroom.NationalismStudy and teachingUnited StatesCultural pluralismStudy and teachingUnited StatesUnited StatesCivilizationStudy and teachingUnited StatesCivilization1970-Study and teachingUnited StatesEthnic relationsStudy and teachingUnited StatesRace relationsStudy and teaching1990s.academic.america.american culture.american history.american studies.college professor.essay anthology.essay collection.globalism.historical.history professor.history teacher.migration.nationalism.nationalist.north atlantic.post nationalist.professor.race issues.race.racism.scholarly.syllabi.syllabus.teacher.united states history.united states.us history.wartime.NationalismStudy and teachingCultural pluralismStudy and teaching973Rowe John Carlos608793MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910783457203321Post-nationalist American studies3701062UNINA
