Transatlantic cooperation in conflict-management

subject

description

Despite remarkable policy disagreements between the US and the EU, a quantitative analysis of transatlantic cooperation in the field of conflict management shows the existence of a growing cooperative habit between the two actors. Indeed, changes in security culture and, more specifically, in conflict management have led to the creation of a transatlantic cooperative nucleus capable of promoting a wide socialisation process and a favourable environment for multilateral intervention to occur. In particular, the contemporary transition of the organization of the international political system, seems to be the viable environment where US's and EU's apparently opposing visions of international security not only coexist but also produce cooperation.
