When I first heard that this year's conference would focus on the state of trans-Atlantic relations, I wondered if the focus was perhaps a bit too narrow. In our speakers and topics we usually cast a more global net, and when we think of crises around the world the problems of Germany or France or the United Kingdom don't usually leap to mind first...I didn't doubt Klaus Becker's prescience in making this the theme of our conference – but I am impressed that he managed to make it coincide with President Bush's farewell tour of European capitals, first, and then the extraordinary spectacle of Barack Obama speaking to 200,000 Germans in Berlin.
