Locating the Transatlantic in Twentieth-century Politics, Diplomacy and Culture
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-22782-8 (ISBN)
With contributions from leading scholars it offers an overview of the field as well as a comparative exploration of Anglo-American relations. From emotion in foreign policy decision making, to the RAF in the Vietnam War, as well as leader personalities and transatlantic reactions to women’s rights in China, Locating the Transatlantic in Twentieth-century Politics, Diplomacy and Culture explores this ‘special relationship’ at many levels and from many angles. It further asks how this relationship has evolved over the years, and considers how it might survive in a globalized, post-industrial world.

She is the author and editor of several books on British foreign policy and international history in the 20th century, including The Berlin Embassy of Lord D’Abernon, 1920-1926 and The Foreign Office and British Diplomacy in the Twentieth Century.
