About

American Imaginaries Synopsis

American Imaginaries examines the diverse societies and nations of the Western hemisphere as they have emerged across the course of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Exploring cities, capitalism, nations, nationalism, and politics from both comparative and transnational perspectives, the book develops a unique approach based on the paradigms of civilizational analysis and social imaginaries. As well as taking a fresh perspective on the Americas, American Imaginaries gives proper analysis of multinational and intra-national regions and, crucially, the civilizational force of resurgent indigenous nations.

Ideal for scholars and students of history, Atlantic Studies, comparative and historical sociology and social theory, the book engages with debates about modernity, civilizations, historical constellations, and social imaginaries.
