About the American Review of Canadian Studies
The American Review of Canadian Studies (ARCS) is a refereed, multidisciplinary, quarterly journal. Published since 1971 by the Association for Canadian Studies in the United States (ACSUS), American Review of Canadian Studies examines Canada and the Canadian point of view from an American perspective. Its articles – both interdisciplinary and disciplinary – explore Canada’s arts, cultures, economics, politics, history, society and environment, recognizing Canada’s distinctive position in the world. Most issues also contain reviews of recently published books across that same broad spectrum of topics – reviews that acquaint readers with current scholarship in the field.
