New Challenges, New Voices: Next Generation Viewpoints on Transatlantic Relations


Published today by LSE IDEAS is an edited compilation of next generation views on the future of transatlantic relations. Edited by me with contributions from Philip Phil Bednarczyk, John Hemmings, Ben Jones, Jeff Lightfoot, Parke Nicholson, Tereza Novotná, Claire Sutherland, Julia Teebken, and Andrew Whitworth.


The future of the transatlantic relationship is rarely out of the headlines in Europe or North America. Despite the closeness, the relationship faces – as it has always done – new and familiar challenges.

This report offers views on the future of transatlantic relations from scholars who are at the start of their careers, with European and US perspectives on what the future holds in defence, economics, values, and relations with emerging powers.
