Assessing US-EU relations after Iraq

This book, which is edited by Gustav Lindstrom, research fellow at the EUISS, provides both a general overview of US-European relations and investigates specific issue areas through case studies covering the following topics: US and EU priorities in the Middle East; the US and the EU in the Balkans; US and European perspectives of terrorism. For each topic, contributions were made by both European and American authors. This book should be of interest to policy-makers, analysts in academia, and research institutes concerned with EU-US relations. With transatlantic relations at a crossroads, near-term developments will be critical for determining the future direction of the partnership. A lively alliance with America could be as likely as a widening gap between the two partners. This book attempts to shed light on these potential evolutions, aiming to contribute to the overall policy debate presently taking place.
