"Globalizing American Studies is strikingly ambitious, aspiring to
something more than the usual collection of 'postnational' or
'hemispheric' approaches to the field. The twelve essays, from
scholars in film and postcolonial studies as well as Latin American
and Middle Eastern studies and with case studies from fields not
typically represented under the American studies rubric, are
rigorously interdisciplinary, innovatively comparative, and
theoretically integrated in their differing conceptions of the
international impulse of American studies."--Susan Gillman,
University of California, Santa Cruz
"A timely collection that will receive a good deal of critical
attention within the academic worlds of American studies, cultural
studies, and comparative literature. There can be little doubt of
the volume's currency." --Paul Giles, University of Sydney-- "Paul
Giles"
