The United States and Europe in the Global Arena

by Luiz de Magalhaes Ozorio (Editor), I. Daalder (Editor)

Overview

This book examines cooperation between the United States and Europe on a range of global issues. With the Soviet threat no longer a unifying factor, the transatlantic partners have sought a new basis for acting together in the post-Cold War era. The conditions and strategies that determine the success or failure of cooperation in: restructuring relations with the East; countering the threat of weapons proliferation; dealing with so-called 'rogue' states; and managing the global economy, are explored.

Editorial Reviews

British and American scholars of political science, economics, security, and related fields evaluate the conditions and strategies that determine the success or failure of cooperation between the two powers now that the Cold War is not blowing at the door. In particular they address joint action on such issues as restructuring relations with the East, countering the threat of weapons proliferation, dealing with so-called rogue states, and managing the global economy.
