About the [transcript] Series

The [transcript] series America - Culture, History, Politics provides a framework for the publication of monographs and relevant, thematically focused anthologies in the history of America (including Latin America).

Special consideration is given to the cultural, social and political history of North America since the colonial period, the transatlantic relations, the history of the Afro-Americans and other minorities, immigration, ethnicity, religion and gender as well as cultural, historical and present-oriented questions of politics and society.

In addition, the series focuses on the inter-American relations and the role of North America in the global context.
