Description
In August 1941, Churchill and Roosevelt met off the coast of Newfoundland for the first of their wartime meetings. The Atlantic Charter, the meeting's result, proclaimed the two leaders' vision of a new world order, a set of principles that would govern international relations with the coming of peace. This collection of essays is the result of an international conference held at the University of Newfoundland to mark the 50th anniversary of the meeting. The essays discuss both the charter's formulation and its long-term significance, and provide perspectives on World War II and its aftermath.
