Annotation
The election of Barack Obama has raised major expectations in Europe and opened up new opportunities for dealing with global challenges - a task made more daunting ba the current economic crisis. Authored by leading expects from both sides of the Atlantic, this book provides an authoritative analysis of the most topical issues facing the European Union and the United States' agendas of today. The volume adresses some global questions - multilateralism, engaging with China and India, the eonomy, disarmament and climate change - as well as key regional issues, including iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Russia, Africa and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The book concludes that it is imperative that Europeans and Americans seize "the Obama moment" in order to capitalise on the urgency of acting now. They will also need to move a new paradigm of the EU-US relationship and NATO's role within it - one that takes account of the fact that the West needs "the rest" to deal with the most pressing issues of our time.
