This conference seeks to explore, through perspectives ranging across the social sciences and the arts, both the past and the future of the transatlantic relationship by using the election of President Obama as a potential turning point. The conference welcomes post-graduate students as well as more established scholars. Papers, poster sessions, and panels related to the above background issues and themes are welcome that
1) develop historically-based arguments;
2) concentrate on examining and tracking bilateral transatlantic relations;
3) compare the different forms that US military, political, economic, legal, and cultural influence takes (and has taken) abroad, be it as a decisive factor or only as a contribution to driving change elsewhere;
4) investigate specific themes over time that have had differing impacts and drawn differing responses from various nations in the region.
Oct. 27-30, 2010, Middelburg, Netherlands
Conference organizers are the Middelburg Center for Transatlantic Studies and
