Overview
Features
The United States has always been a source of fascination — both attraction and repulsion — for the people of France, Mexico, China, Russia, and African countries such as Nigeria, Ghana, and Sudan.
Focused on perceptions of America abroad, the America Through Foreign Eyes course offered by Coursera is a cross between World Cultures and American Studies. The course features five core modules, each covering the perceptions and interactions of particular regions with America, Americans and Americanization.
