  • Theoretical reflections
  • Colonial and historical perspectives
  • Cultural and political intersections
  • Border discourses
  • Sites and mobilities
  • Literary and linguistic perspectives
  • Area studies, global studies, and postnational studies
  • Phenomena of transfer, interconnectedness, power asymmetry, and transversality within the Americas.

"The time has certainly come for overviews and handbooks that define the fields and its disciplinary history and problems more comprehensively ... Rassert's Routledge Companion is therefore a most welcome publication." -- Helmbrecht Breinig (Erlangen)
