Summary/Abstract: American Studies is the most prosperous area of international studies in China. As in other countries, universities constitute the major force. In most universities, American literature and culture are researched and taught in English departments, American history in history departments, Sino-US relations in political science departments, and so on. This means American Studies is usually conducted in separate university departments and is not treated as an independent discipline.
