Ces contributions analysent les relations transatlantiques dans le contexte de l'après-guerre froide. Elles interrogent l'existence de valeurs et intérêts communs à l'Europe et aux Etats-Unis tels que ceux qui ont été à la base de l'Organisation du traité de l'Atlantique Nord après 1945. ©Electre 2024
For more than forty years the security alliance of the North Atlantic Treaty symbolised the common interests of Western Europe and the United States, and provided the context for all transatlantic political and economic relations. Yet the loss of a common enemy in the Soviet Union forced a reconsideration of the purpose of Nato and the mutual interests that still existed between Europe and the United States. These contributions build on this post-Cold War reframing of transatlantic relations and offer a multi-faceted study of the values, purposes, milieus and networks that underlay the Atlantic Community after 1945. For a long time the notion of « Atlantic Community » was a widely used phrase denoting a taken-for-granted state of affairs - the organization of the West in front of the Soviet threat - with very little conceptual clarity behind it. It is now an opportune moment to focus on and problematise this concept from a historical perspective. In particular, the chapters consider what it meant, how the transatlantic intellectual and policy-making elites sought to convey it to their national publics, which circles supported it, and what the effects were in social life as a whole.
