Abstract

This panel calls for papers which consider US foreign policy in relation to transatlantic relations, with a specific emphasis on Europe as a key site of political instability. Europe has long been Washington's partner in the extension of the post-1945 international political and economic order – which could be described as a transatlantic order. If the US is no longer able or willing to uphold that order, then the nature of the transatlantic relationship may be radically redefined, and Europe's leaders will need to urgently rethink their global strategies. Papers could potentially look at: specific case studies in respect of the US-European relationship; the development of EU autonomy and the relationship with NATO; Russia and the threat to European security and stability; and/or the theories and methods necessary to understand the transatlantic relationship.
