Empire by Integration is the first comprehensive survey of the American policy towards European integration from 1945 to the present day. Geir Lundestad argues that, unlike other Great Powers, the United States strongly supported the integration of the most important area under its influence: Western Europe. This integration was, however, to take place within an American-dominated Atlantic framework. In the provocative words of the author this was a policy of empire by integration. Professor Lundestad takes a clear, chronological approach to the subject, from the beginnings of European integration after the Second World War, the challenge to American policy on European integration by President Charles de Gaulle, and the modified support for European integration in the Nixon-Kissinger years through to the present revived support for European integration under the Clinton administration. Empire by Integration provides a succinct, provocative, and highly readable account of this crucial aspect of American-Western European relations. It will be an ideal textbook for use on courses including International Relations, US Modern History, and European Integration.

11/09/2001, el darrer llibre de Noam Chomsky estructurat a traves de set llargues entrevistes de periodistes estrangers durant el primer mes i mig posterior als atacs al World Trade Center i al Pentagon, es un assaig lucid i contundent sobre els fets i les consequencies dels atemptats de l'11 de setembre. 11/09/2001 no solament analitza les causes i les consequencies dels atemptats i la reaccio del poble nord-america sino que questiona les raons de la guerra i els bombardeigs.Chomsky, sempre critic amb el poder i la industria militar, dona una visio radicalment nova del conflicte, s'oposa a una guerra que tan sols infligira un enorme castig a victimes innocents i revela els interessos ocults dels pasos occidentals. Aquest llibre, sens dubte, generara un debat profund i remoura la nostra consciencia.
