The fifteen thematic chapters presented here argue that while current political and economic strains do not indicate the end of the US-European alliance, it is the end of the unipolar era. The authors look at the alliance through the lens of current pressing issues, including US deficits, Middle East conflicts, the need for NATO reform, and security issues in Europe, particularly Ukraine. This academic book is designed to help policy-makers to establish a framework for increasing cooperation and a prosperous, peaceful world.
