The Rhizomatic West: Representing the American West in a Transnational, Global, Media Age - Postwestern Horizons

Is the American West in Sergio Leone's "spaghetti westerns" the same American West we find in Douglas Coupland's Generation X? In Jim Jarmusch's movies? In Calexico's music? This book shows how the West (or west-ness) breaks away from a mainstream notion of American "rootedness" and renews and transforms itself in various cultural forms.
