The events of 9/11 brought the subject of international terrorism
to the top of the global security agenda. This new book focuses on
the way that the transatlantic allies have sought to combat
international terrorism.
Since the end of the Cold War, Europe and the United States have
adapted the security regime that proved so effective in ensuring
peace on the continent. Transatlantic counter-terrorism cooperation
has required the full range of international instruments: from the
use of military force and intelligence sharing to novel forms of
working together such as over law enforcement and border security.
Wyn Rees traces the development of transatlantic security
relations, focussing on key issues such as:
- The US-led "War on Terrorism" and whether it has resulted in
convergence or divergence in US and European policies towards
combating terrorism.
- The importance of transatlantic organizations in channelling
efforts to deal with the threat.
- The pressure for both internal and external security cooperation
in transatlantic relations.
- The tensions and challenges that emanate from attempting to
generate cooperation between unequal state actors.
This text will greatly interest students and scholars of
International Relations, International Security and Transatlantic
Relations.
