Summary
"What does the future hold for the United States and Europe? What fundamental societal, economic, political, and security trends will reshape transatlantic relations over the coming decade? Will they draw Europeans and Americans together or drive them apart? In this book leading experts discuss and explain issues ranging from demography, energy and economic crises to security, societal resilience and the rise of new powers. Co-editors Dan Hamilton and Kurt Volker present four 'transatlantic futures' based on these trends, and recommend policies to ensure a vibrant transatlantic partnership in a rapidly changing world" -- back cover
