Seminar paper from the year 2020 in the subject American Studies, grade: 1,0, University of Heidelberg (Heidelberg Center for American Studies), language: English, abstract: This research paper illustrates the transatlantic relationship between the United States and Germany before President Trump took office in 2016. It uses the historical context of the Cold War and its aftermath, as well as German Reunification to explain what the relationship looked like, how it changed over time, and what it means for both countries. Illustrating cooperative dynamics in the military and in politics, it is further discussed if the relationship between the United States and Germany could be considered "special". In the conclusion, the paper argues that we should invest our resources in keeping the important political and socio-cultural ties alive to form an enduring alliance.
