Resumen:
Este libro estudia el estado actual y futuro de las relaciones transatlánticas y la integración europea en términos del impacto de los principales actores en la estabilización del escenario internacional y en sus respuestas a las amenazas y retos en seguridad. El análisis se enfoca tanto en la problemática teórica como en las acciones llevadas a cabo por la OTAN, la Unión Europea y los Estados Miembros, como los Estados Unidos, Alemania y Francia. Este trabajo examina la posible idoneidad de la OTAN para resolver problemas de seguridad en una situación de crecientes aspiraciones por parte de la Unión Europea de jugar un papel más importante en el escenario internacional. El verdadero reto para ambas instituciones y para los poderes más importantes es el de la política neoimperialista de Rusia, que intenta fortalecer de forma significativa su posición dentro de la política internacional.
