Mapping the American Century

about

Project Background

Mapping the American Century showcases collections that were created by graduate students from the American Studies program at Radboud University, the Netherlands. Based on research in Dutch, German, and American archives, these collections reveal new sources, stories, and images or offer original takes on existing debates.

We hope that the exhibit will inspire students and scholars of American and Transatlantic Studies and everyone else who is interested in European culture and the global presence of the United States.

The webpage is tied to the course “Practices of Transatlantic Studies”, taught by Americanist and historian Jorrit van den Berk, who is also the general editor of the webpage. Do feel free to reach out at j.vandenberk@let.ru.nl.
