Conclusion
As a conclusion I identified three possible
scenarios for the future of the transatlantic
relations in 2020. The first, Pax Americana,
counts with a growing U.S. political,
military and economical power in the
world. The second one, Europe on the
move, suggests us that the after successful
European integration in the forthcoming
decades (Constitution, institutional
reform, united foreign policy, completion
of the Lisbon strategy, expanding eurozone,
promotion of life-long learning), the
European Union completed the last and
final stage of its political integration
and by that time it is a strong global
actor. The third scenario, Tripolarity,
projects that neither the U.S., nor
the European Union reached a decisive
leading role in development, but a
third world power, due its gradually
growing economy, China entered the
stage of world politics,
being the second strongest power in the
world by 2020 .
