Sophie Croisy

Sophie Croisy serves as Associate Professor of American Studies within the Department of Languages at Paris-Saclay University's Institute of Cultural and International Studies (IECI). She holds dual administrative roles as International Relations Coordinator for the English, European and International Studies, and Law-English degree tracks, and as Pedagogical Coordinator for first- and second-year European and International Studies programs.

Her academic foundation includes a Doctorate in Literature and Culture of Anglophone Countries from the University of Florida (2000-2006), followed by temporary teaching positions (ATER) before her current appointment since 2008.

Her research synthesizes American Studies, Postcolonial Theory, and Indigenous Perspectives through frameworks of cultural transdisciplinarity and international cultural dynamics. Key specializations include 19th-20th century American literature/civilization, postcolonial world literature, Commonwealth historical analysis, and international relations with emphasis on indigenous community preservation within globalization contexts. Her methodological approach consistently bridges literary analysis with socio-political critique.

Recent publications (2019-2022) reveal three dominant trajectories: (1) Critical examinations of U.S. tourism economies and spatial politics, (2) Interrogations of eugenic policies against indigenous populations across settler-colonial states, and (3) Literary analyses of Native American writers like Leslie Marmon Silko through tribal internationalist frameworks. These works demonstrate consistent engagement with cultural memory, identity formation, and decolonial perspectives across geographic scales.
