American Quarterly
 Founded in 1949, American Quarterly is the journal of the American Studies Association. American Quarterly represents innovative interdisciplinary scholarship that engages with key issues in American studies. The journal publishes essays that examine American societies and cultures, past and present, in global and local contexts. This includes work that contributes to our understanding of the United States in its diversity, its relations with its hemispheric neighbors, and its impact on world politics and culture. Through the publication of reviews of books, exhibitions, and diverse media, the journal seeks to make available the broad range of emergent approaches to American studies. American Quarterly is published four times a year, in March, June, September, and December. It is available online to ASA members and through Project Muse and JSTOR. |
