Cornell University Press The End of the West?: Crisis and Change in the Atlantic Order
The past several years have seen strong disagreements between the U.S. government and many of its European allies. News accounts of these challenges focus on isolated incidents and points of contention. The End of the West? addresses some basic questions: Are we witnessing a deepening transatlantic rift, with wide-ranging consequences for the future of world order? Or are today's foreign-policy disagreements the equivalent of dinner-table squabbles? What harm, if any, have events since 9/11 done to the enduring relationships between the U.S. government and its European counterparts? The contributors to this volume, whose backgrounds range from political science and history to economics, law, and sociology, examine the "deep structure" of an order that was first imposed by the Allies in 1945 and has been a central feature of world politics ever since. Creatively and insightfully blending theory and evidence, the chapters in The End of the West? examine core structural features of the transatlantic order to determine whether current disagreements are minor and transient or catastrophic and permanent.

Rowman & Littlefield Regional Integration and Democracy: Expanding on the European Experience
This ambitious and original work explores the complex interrelationship between democracy and regional integration. Its empirical center of gravity rests in Europe, yet the volume shifts the common terms of discussion on integration and democracy by including case studies outside of Europe and by exploring a broader range of themes, especially the fate of domestic institutions and processes in an integrating milieu. This novel focus also enriches the contributors' fresh analysis of the European Union's democratic deficit, the impact of regional integration on national democracy, and the dynamic interactions between democracy and integration elsewhere in the world.
