It aims to reassess not only the processes of influence and collaboration in governmental policies, but also the role of actors and experts in less explored areas of international relations research, such as officers, assistance policies, companies, and foundations. In their contributions, the authors reveal the full complexity of a relationship marked both by the co-construction of interests, and by the competition between states, or sectors of society. The wide range of case studies presented allows us to rethink and reassess concepts such as spheres of influence, hegemony, and soft power. Highlighting the diversity of actors on both sides of the US-Mediterranean relationship, this book will provide valuable reading for researchers and students interested in the recent history of international relations. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNicolas Badalassi\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Contemporary History at Sciences Po Aix, France.
