Associate Professor of Political Science Glyn Morgan's forthcoming book, The Rise and Fall of American Europe (Polity, September 2026), was reviewed in Financial Times. 

“In his short but incisive account, he [Morgan] argues that the decisive shove for postwar European integration came not from Europeans but from America. It was the U.S., alarmed by Soviet domination of eastern Europe, that saw integration as key to turning Europeans into prosperous and stable allies—and was willing to use its military and economic power, including the Marshall Plan, to impose its own Pax Americana,” writes reviewer Simon Nixon.
