The transatlantic relationship, a cornerstone of the liberal global order, has entered a new phase in response to recent geopolitical challenges. The Russia-Ukraine war triggered a burst of solidarity across the Atlantic, reactivating NATO under the pressure of external threats. Yet, while Western nations came together to address immediate security concerns, deeper questions remain about the coherence and the future of this partnership. Is the transatlantic relationship robust enough to navigate the shifting global order? How should we understand the evolving dynamics between the United States and Europe in the face of divergent interests and strategies?

This mini-symposium invites scholars to explore the many dimensions of the transatlantic relationship in the 21st century, focusing on its political, economic, security, legal and public attitudes aspects.

We seek contributions that critically assess the status of transatlantic cooperation, the origins of challenges for cooperation and the impact of recent policies and events on the structure of coordination across the Atlantic. What are the key factors and conditions that determine the strength and weaknesses of this partnership?
