It addresses major questions, including:
- is it true that the disappearance of exchange risks will benefit trade and growth?
- can the EMU function if integration is not speeded up in other areas?
- will the EMU enhance internal cohesion?
- is the creation of a single currency a popularly accepted idea in the member states?
The authors also examine some more specific issues including European Work Councils, the possibility of coordinated environmental policy within the European Union, employment rights and technological collaboration.
This topical book will be welcomed by those scholars, students and policymakers interested in some of the most important issues currently faced by Europe.
