Transatlantic approach to global security problems
Transatlantic approach to global security problems

Summary/Abstract: The general dynamics of the post-Cold War era have been concentrated around the idea of replacing earlier conflicts with cooperation. This idea is coupled with a vision of a more peaceful and prosperous age. In considering a peaceful world, security issues must be foremost. If we focus on global security issues and problems, it is best to evaluate the approaches of the United States (US) and Europe (that is so-called transatlantic approach) at the same time. There is no doubt that both the US and Europe are major security powers in the postwar period, and that relations between them determine global issues. This paper, therefore, analyzes both the cooperative and competitive natures of transatlantic approach to global security problems. The paper examines, shortly, the security issues surrounding “problem” states, including Cuba, Iran, Iraq, Libya, Nigeria, and the Middle East region - as of Arab-Israeli relations, in particular.
