About

I’m Andrew C. McKevitt, though I prefer to be called Drew. I’m an associate professor of history at Louisiana Tech University.

I recently published a book called Consuming Japan: Popular Culture and the Globalizing of 1980s America.

Currently I’m working on two new book projects. The first explores the role of gun violence in U.S. foreign relations in the postwar era. The second examines U.S. workers in foreign-owned manufacturing facilities in the United States since the 1970s.

For more details on my research and writing, please see my publications.

I teach undergraduate and graduate classes at Louisiana Tech on many subjects. I work with graduate students on graduate theses and comprehensive exams in the field of U.S. foreign relations history.
