Tracing the ways America has been appropriated by pop culture produced outside the United States, he examines such icons as the Elvis-inspired performer Lee Towers and the Moroccan-Dutch rapper Ali B. This revised edition features a new chapter on Barack Obama's global celebrity and an afterword on teaching American pop culture. Like the first edition, it will prove an illuminating resource for scholars of American culture and popular cultures the world over. 606 $aPopular culture$zUnited States 606 $aPopular culture$zNetherlands 606 $aCivilization$xAmerican influences 607 $aNetherlands$xCivilization$xAmerican influences 610 $amedia 610 $apop culture 610 $aculture 615 0$aPopular culture 615 0$aPopular culture 615 0$aCivilization$xAmerican influences. 676 $a306.0973 700 $aKooijman$b Jaap$0800928 702 $aOlaf$b Erwin 702 $aMannel$b Sabine 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910132220203321 996 $aFabricating the Absolute Fake$91802273 997 $aUNINA
