Abstract
The publication brings attention to immigration to North and South America, the principal destinations for Czech and Scandinavians during the great migrations from Europe in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The strategies adopted by "minor" nationalities in the New World and the phenomenon of American migration in national literature are discussed by Czech and Norwegian academics within the framework of their philological and historical fields.
The nine chapters presents studies on Czechs, Norwegians, and Sámi people in the USA and Argentina and Paraguay.
