Bridging the Atlantic

de Mark Nelson

Examines the growing scepticism about the Euro-American relationship emerging among domestic audiences and politicians at a time when Europe's influence on the world stage is likely to increase with the advent of the Euro. Argues that while the Euro-American relationship is as important as ever, it must broaden its appeal beyond the foreign policy gurus and military experts who have been its traditional advocates. Outlines the central role that Britain must play both in deepening its ties to the Continent and convincing the Americans to work with Europe to maintain a stable global order. (Rear cover).
