Its central assumption is that this is best achieved through the rigorous engagement with disciplines across the humanities and social sciences. In other words, American Studies is understood to be a fundamentally interdisciplinary subject. Moreover, because the subject involves the study of another nation, students are required to spend a year at a North American university. Since Lancaster University has a long experience of student exchanges between its constitutive departments and North American universities, this year abroad is an integral part of the course. Thus, unlike courses in American Studies at most other British universities, American Studies at Lancaster University is a three rather than a four-year degree course.

    Immigration in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era
    by Donna R. Gabaccia
    Charles H. Stone Professor of American History
    The University of North Carolina at Charlotte Immigration reached its historical peak in the Gilded Age and Progressive Era (GAPE), as almost twelve million immigrants entered the U.S. between 1890 and 1910. Most historians of immigration refer to the years including the GAPE as the years of "the new immigration," distinguishing this migration of southern and eastern Europeans (and, to much lesser extent, Mexicans and Asians) from the "old immigration" of northern and western Europeans and Chinese of the years 1850-1880. Laws severely restricting immigration cut off this new immigration between 1917 and 1924. Even today's immigrationwhich developed after revision of U.S. policy in 1965has not surpassed the relative, absolute, or demographic impact of the new immigration of the GAPE. Thus, any student of the GAPE, and any teacher of GAPE surveys or specialized topics, needs to keep the theme of immigration within her purview.

    Are we living in a new "Gilded Age" of income inequality?
    19-Dec-2003 Dear Cecil: Lately I've been hearing that the difference between the haves and have-nots in the U.S. has been increasing, and that unequal distribution of incomes has been approaching that of the Gilded Age. Is this literally true? While I understand that Bill Gates and corporate CEOs and such are taking home some serious cash, are we really seeing a return to the era of the robber barons, when a tiny percentage of the population controlled a huge chunk of the national wealth? Betsy Schorsch, Chicago Cecil replies: Questions like this always irritate the man of science (and no doubt the woman too) because the answer depends on how the issue is framed. Is the degree of inequality in the distribution of income "approaching" that of the Gilded Age? Sure. If I take one step south I'm approaching Patagonia, too. Doesn't mean I'm necessarily close. So let's tighten things up a bit. On November 20, 2003, the New York Review of Books contained the following statement by Paul Krugman: "Recent statistics confirm that income inequality in the United States has returned to Gilded Age levels." Krugman, a

    For Richer SYNOPSIS: Click here to read the Sources for this article I. The Disappearing Middle When I was a teenager growing up on Long Island, one of my favorite excursions was a trip to see the great Gilded Age mansions of the North Shore. Those mansions weren't just pieces of architectural history. They were monuments to a bygone social era, one in which the rich could afford the armies of servants needed to maintain a house the size of a European palace. By the time I saw them, of course, that era was long past. Almost none of the Long Island mansions were still private residences. Those that hadn't been turned into museums were occupied by nursing homes or private schools. For the America I grew up in the America of the 1950's and 1960's was a middle-class society, both in reality and in feel. The vast income and wealth inequalities of the Gilded Age had disappeared. Yes, of course, there was the poverty of the underclass but the conventional wisdom of the time viewed that as a social rather than an economic problem. Yes, of course, some wealthy businessmen and heirs to large fortunes lived far better than the average American. But they weren't rich the way the robber barons who built the mansions had been rich, and there weren't that many of them. The days when plutocrats were a force to be reckoned with in American society, economically or politically, seemed long past. Daily experience confirmed the sense of a fairly equal society. The economic disparities you were conscious of were quite muted. Highly educated professionals middle managers, college teachers, even lawyers often claimed that they earned less than unionized blue-collar workers. Those considered very well off lived in split-levels, had a housecleaner come in once a week and took summer vacations in Europe. But they sent their kids to public schools and drove themselves to work, just like everyone else.
