This study, completed in 2007, dealt with four different aspects of U.S.-EU relations.
The first theme looked at relations with regard to combating terrorism.
The second theme, entitled "defense aspects", analyzed NATO-ESDP relations and the perspectives for improved cooperation between the U.S. and the E.U. relative to conflict prevention and civil-military crisis management.
The third theme, on the perspectives of European defense, paid particular attention to the viewpoints of new member States and to American reactions
The fourth and final theme attempted to assess if and how the creation of Africa Command could facilitate cooperation between the U.S. and the EU in Africa.
Overall, the study sought to understand points of tension and/or disagreement and to emphasize the possibilities for increased convergence in order to encourage greater transatlantic cooperation.
