Transnational Americas - Envisioning Inter-American Area Studies in Globalization Processes (English, Spanish, Paperback)

This collection of essays proposes an inter-American space of entanglement as a perspective for new area studies beyond methodological nationalism. Taking a transdisciplinary approach to these hemispheric area studies, this volume combines findings from sociology, history, political science, literary and media studies. The fifteen essays are grouped into thematic sections on "Inter-American Geopolitics," "Migration, Diaspora, Translocal Communities," "Globalization and Medialization of Indigenous Identities," and "Post-multicultural Identity Politics."
