These interactions between two different human groups have occurred in all areas of America including the South, the West, and also the East, and in just about every possible occasion. Although a vast amount literature has already been written about the historical relations that existed between European Americans and Native Americans and between European Americans and African Americans, those relations between Native Americans and African Americans have been largely overlooked. This is because most of the scholars of American minority histories have usually devoted their energies only to the disclosure of historical realities of European American-Native American or European American-African American relations separately to recreate a more "liberal" American history. Nevertheless, interest in the historical relations between Native Americans and African Americans is recently growing rapidly as a field of academic research in the United States because the notion has come to be widely accepted that the knowledge of various historical relations between minority groups is indispensable when historians would write a more comprehensive and diversified American history. And over the past few decades a number of interesting studies related to the history of Native American-African American relations have started to be published. Therefore in this paper, I review those studies and show the significance of such work for the development of American history as a whole. I believe the studies on the history of Native American-African American relations have the potential to be a good means to criticize a simple dichotomic understanding of American history.}, pages = {5--23}, title = {先住アメリカ人-アフリカ系アメリカ人関係史研究の可能性}, volume = {8}, year = {2007} }
