Research Projects

The Center for Transatlantic Relations undertakes projects on subjects concerning the countries that border the Atlantic and on global issues facing Europe and North America. In most cases CTR works with European partner institutions. The Center publishes books, monographs, or reports based on the findings of its research projects. Our research also examines ways in which global change affects the governance of the transatlantic community.
