Description
The Routledge Handbook of Transatlantic Relations is an essential and comprehensive reference for the regulation of transatlantic relations across a range of subjects, bringing together contributions from scholars, policy makers, lawyers and political scientists. Future oriented in a range of fields, it probes the key technical, procedural and policy issues for the US of dealing with, negotiating, engaging and law-making with the EU, taking a broad interdisciplinary perspective including international relations, politics, political economic and law, EU external relations law and international law and assesses the external consequences of transatlantic relations in a systematic and comprehensive fashion.
The transatlantic relationship constitutes one of the most established and far-reaching democratic alliances globally, and which has propelled multilateralism, trade regulation and the EU-US relationship in global challenges. The different contributions will propose solutions to overcome these problems and help us understand the shifting transatlantic agenda in diverse areas from human rights, to trade, and security, and the capacity of the transatlantic relationship to set new international agendas, standards and rules.
The Routledge Handbook of Transatlantic Relations will be a key reference for scholars, students and practitioners of Transatlantic Relations/EU-US relations, EU External Relations law, EU rule-making, EU Security law and more broadly to global governance, International law, international political economy and international relations.

Reviews / Votes
Transatlantic relations are often reduced to security matters. This book responds to the need for more comprehensive analyses of various policy sectors and arenas in which the EU and the US interact. These are embedded in larger theoretical debates, thus skillfully connecting theory and practice in this valuable handbook.Markus Thiel, Florida International University, USA
An intellectual gold mine for scholars and practitioners alike, this book unlocks the full complexity of Transatlantic relations. Breaking down policy silos, it goes beyond the diplomatic tip of the Transatlantic iceberg to shed light on the submerged processes, actors and institutions that structure this cooperative, competitive and conflictual relationship.
Jean-Baptiste Velut, Universite Sorbonne Nouvelle, France.
With this seminal work Elaine Fahey assembled an impressive selection of authoritative voices on Transatlantic relations from both sides of the pond who delivered rigorous, original, and thought-provoking contributions providing a consistent narrative on a crucial relationship that has been and will remain difficult before, during, and after President Trump.
Professor Martin Trybus, University of Birmingham, UK
In an increasingly bipolar world, the US-EU relationship should be one of strength and coherence. Yet, as the Handbook vividly shows, this relationship remains unstable and multifaceted. New crises and actions by a plurality of transatlantic actors are constantly re-shaping the balance of powers in diplomacy, policy, and law across the Atlantic.
Fernanda G. Nicola, Washington College of Law, American University, USA
