Content:
Regardless of the outcome of the U.S. elections, the book traces the state of the transatlantic relationship and dares to look ahead to the future. Is the alliance between Europe and the USA firmly established or are there security and economic policy fractures? The analyses take into account highly topical issues such as the war in Ukraine and the increasing importance of China, but also future issues such as energy or the challenges to democracy posed by upheavals in electoral policy.
