AMERICAN STUDIES
Our research reflects the rapid historical and cultural development of America, and how in turn American culture represents history.
Our research focusses on three themes:
Censorship, Propaganda and Radicalism in American Culture
The History of Race and Gender in the United States
American Dreams and Nightmares
Our diverse research output ranges from an exploration of the political tensions of the American Revolution to appraising gender roles in US animation. Our research is a rich and varied examination of the world's ultimate super power.
