Unless otherwise noted, the term “American” will be used to refer to a citizen of the United States or as an adjective describing individuals, institutions, and so forth of U.S. origin. The term “North American,” long preferred by many writers, is rarely used in ordinary parlance and in any event appears to improperly embrace Canada and perhaps even Mexico since the North American Free Trade Agreement has been in force. 2.For an overview of the development of international studies to 1940,see Robert A.
