Etat : Neu. Denationalizing North American Studies. Edited by Mita Banerjee. The 21st century is a time seemingly without borders, an era of an unprecedented flow of goods, capital, and labor. It is a time, also, in which the very boundaries of our disciplines have fissured out, encompassing spaces well beyond the nation-state. The ten contributions to this volume set out to explore what this opening up of national borders may mean for the disciplines of both American and Canadian studies. At the same time, light is shown on the fact that the apparent denationalization of North American Studies may be a deeply ambivalent concept. It may be moored in realities which drive home the point that the nation state is far from obsolete; yet, it may also point at the way in which particularly in the area of minority studies, the transcending of national borders and the forging of transnational alliances could not be more fruitful. Finally, the volume seeks to explore the meaning of 'Americanness'. At a time when both global politics and popular culture seem to be defined by a seeming ubiquity of the US, other spaces and cultural productions run the risk of being mere copies, of being 'virtually American' rather than originals in their own right. This, too, needs to be reassessed in order to arrive, perhaps, at a more dialogic understanding of what 'America' may mean. - Contents: Rüdiger Kunow: In Sickness and in Health.
