Continuities

As I tried to explain in the introduction to the Journal of American Studies of Turkey that I edited no. 32 , one of the Journal’s main aims is to promote transdisciplinary as well as transcultural reflection on what the term “America” signifies as a psychological, social and political construct, and how it continues to shape our lives, irrespective of where we might reside Raw 4-5 . One of the ways in which we can promote this dialogue is through continuity, by maintaining our commitment to publish articles and reviews that concentrate specifically on cross-cultural and/or crossmedia issues.
