About the Authors
  • This unique collection of essays lays the groundwork for the study of the intersection of European integration and transatlantic relations in the 1980s. With archives for this period only recently being opened, scholars are beginning to analyse and understand what some have called a peak moment in the European project and others have called the Second Cold War. How do these moments intersect and relate to one another? These essays, by prominent scholars from Europe and the United States, examine these and related questions while challenging the '1980s' itself as a useful demarcation for historical analysis.

    • Combines political history with economic, social and cultural history on both sides of the Atlantic
    • Includes essays by many prominent scholars
    • Weaves together histories in a fascinating way
