Abstract

This article looks at what many authors have termed “Americanism” in the work of Milton Cani , which allows us to trace this ideological current’s evolution throughout the twentieth century. Cani ’s work shifts from support for Chinese Communist resistance against the Japa- nese invasion in the pre-World War II Sino-Japanese War, to the crusade of a character like Steve Canyon against Communism during the Cold War, largely following U.S. American ideology in each of these historical moments. This ideological evolution is the central object of this study.
