Book Description
In Part One the author examines the implications of adopting a common currency, assessing the benefit to each country from being a member of the Eurozone, whilst also questioning whether other parts of the world would gain from monetary unification. Part Two of the book looks at the problems of running a monetary union by analysing Europe’s experience and the issues faced by the European Central Bank.
Editorial Reviews
Review
This textbook is essential and unique in its coverage of the most recent institutional changes within the European Monetary Union, including a reflection on the banking union and the role of lender of last resort for the ECB. That, combined with a clear economic analysis make the text essential reading for students rightly demanding an opportunity to explore the European Union and the challenges of monetary union that we are facing today. (
