- Summary:
- In Permanent Alliance? Stanley R. Sloan discusses the global trends that are changing the environment for transatlantic relations, such as European integration, global security, emerging powers, and the role of the United States as a world leader. A completely updated and refocused version of Sloan's previous work, NATO, the European Union, and the Atlantic Community, the book now examines whether NATO has become the "permanent alliance" about which President George Washington warned or if it is nearing the end of its utility.
