| In early 2009, BASC kicked off a three-year project on "The Transatlantic Relationship in a Post-Transatlantic World." For the first time in a century, a set of large, populous and increasingly wealthy states—China, India and Russia—are on the cusp of achieving great-power status. What will be the relationship between the EU and the US vis-à-vis these rising powers? Will the transatlantic relationship hold and become stronger, faced with this new geopolitical and geo-economic challenge? Or will the US and the EU compete for economic and political advantage? Our first conference in April 2009 focused on the rise of Russia, and we will take on India and China in 2010 and 2011 respectively. |
