Benefits of the EU-US Relationship

The Trump Administration has called the transatlantic relationship into question as never before. NATO has been described as obsolete and doubts raised about the U.S.'s security guarantee, although both claims have been rowed back somewhat. The EU has been characterized as a flawed construct and Germany described as a currency manipulator. In this context, we have gathered together some of the leading research on the transatlantic relationship to underline how important it and a strong EU are to US interests.

• Antje Wiener: Trump and The End of Taken For Grantedness: When the Exception Becomes the Rule
  This think-piece suggests that following the Trump election a return to normalcy, i.e. the politics and everyday life that had been perceived by the public as ‘normal’ prior to the elections, is not likely. Quite the contrary is probably the case. It is argued that we should instead theorise president-elect Donald Trump’s rise to the forefront of not only US American but also world politics as a ‘critical juncture’ in politics.
