Book Review

Amerikanskaia tsivilizatsiia kak istoricheskii fenomen: Vospriiatie SShA v amerikanskoi, zapadnoevropeiskoi, i russkoi obshchestvennoi mysli (American civilization as a historical phenomenon: Perception of the United States in American, west European, and Russian social thought). Ed. by N. N. Bolkhovitinov. (Moscow: Nauka, 2001. 493 pp. $21.95, ISBN 5-02-008727-0.) In Russian.

Along with much else in post-Soviet Russia, the field of American history is in the process of reinventing itself. This new volume offers a snapshot of Americanists' progress as well as a number of interesting essays on a wide range of topics. The volume's editor is N. N. Bolkhovitinov, a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences, one of the founding "international editors" of this journal, and the unofficial dean of American studies in Russia. Organized into three sections—"What Americans Themselves Think of Their Country," "How America Is Seen on Both Sides of the Atlantic," and "America as Seen by Russians"—the book offers selections as broad as its title implies.
