Anders Bo Rasmussen is Associate Professor at the Center for American Studies. Rasmussen’s research examines transnational relations between the United States and Europe focused mainly on the 19th century. He has published articles and books on immigration history, slavery and capitalism, cultural diplomacy, and Americanization. His current book project "For God and Country: Scandinavians, Citizenship, and American Empire," examines transatlantic diplomacy and Scandinavian immigrant enclaves in the years bracketing the Civil War.

His work on American history, culture, and society has appeared in (inter)national media outlets such as NDR, Weekendavisen, and Politiken among others.
