The American Studies Research Group was formed in the Institute of History at the Faculty of Arts of the University of Miskolc in October 2015. Its membership, however, is not limited to historians. In accordance with international trends, the research group takes a multidisciplinary approach in order to present a complex and multidimensional view of the problems and characteristics of the Americas. Therefore, it includes among its members lawyers and economists besides representatives of the liberal arts. True to its name, it conducts research encompassing all parts of the Americas. Studies of group members focus not only on the North American or Latin American regions but also deal with inter-American relations.
