Description:
The European Union and the United States are currently negotiating the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), with potentially enormous economic gains for both partners. Experts from the European Union and the United States explore not only the groundwork laid for TTIP under the "New Transatlanticism," but also the key variables - economic, cultural, institutional, and political - shaping transatlantic policy outcomes. This insightful account into policy cooperation between the EU and the US is a welcomed resource for policy specialists oriented toward comparative public policy wishing to enter the arena of Transatlantic Studies.
Review Quotes:
'"In a world of more diffuse power and principles, Europeans and Americans are challenged to reposition their partnership for the 21st century. Yet they face a mismatch between the nature of the challenges and the institutional frameworks, strategic-action capacity, and practical tools at their disposal. This volume offers new insights into the governance of transatlantic relations and the evolving nature of the U.S.-EU partnership."--Daniel S. Hamilton, Center for Transatlantic Relations, Johns Hopkins University SAIS
"This is an interesting and informative collection of articles. I highly recommend the volume to a wide audience of those interested in transatlantic relations."--Joseph A. McKinney, Baylor University
