A burgeoning amount of new and forthcoming scholarship on American globalization during this era has created an opportunity to rethink orthodox narratives of American history and globalization. This "Interchange " conversation illustrates how historians have been pursuing productive imperatives to move American history beyond the container of the nation-state and also considers how we should reintegrate a globalized U.S. history into our more traditional narratives. The conversation also places the history of American globalization in a larger context, allowing us to interrogate the more complex history of globalization. Attending to the limits of globalization can reveal important histories foreclosed by a rush to demonstrate mere interconnection. Global interconnection was not some kind of already existing condition to be discovered by historians. Globalization entailed work—a contingent and grounded process that deserves a full history. And globalization included varying vantage points and power dynamics. The JAH is indebted to all of the participants for sharing their thoughts on this subject.
