American-German relations are currently undergoing significant changes, influenced by various factors including political personalities, disparities in attitudes, and differing foreign policy objectives since the Cold War and 9/11. This volume, authored by American and German experts, explores the depth and resilience of misconceptions and misunderstandings within the transatlantic relationship while emphasizing the enduring ties between the U.S. and Germany. The chapters delve into domestic and foreign policies, political cultures, and trends in business relations, migration, culture, education, journalism, law, and religion. The authors argue that differences in political cultures, societal priorities, and national interests are not only inevitable but can also be beneficial for fostering continuous and mutually advantageous exchanges. Acknowledging these differences is essential for understanding and addressing them in a context of mutual trust and shared interests. The book concludes with recommendations for navigating varying interpretations and perceptions to restore a strategic partnership that can adapt to an increasingly multipolar world.
