With North Atlantic post-World War II transatlantic dynamics as the
subject, this volume inquires if its theoretical tenets hold in
other epochs and Atlantic arenas. Both case and comparative studies
of such historical cases as the silver, slave, and commodity
trades, and whether ideas, such as faith and democracy, have as
much impact as these merchandise flows, simultaneously challenge
and strengthen the transatlantic paradigm. They permit
transatlantic relations to be stretched as far back as to the 8th
Century, in turn exposing transatlantic flows hugging global
threads, while revealing the strength and size of several
unaccounted types of transatlantic transactions, such as the
north-south varieties.
