Description
Monetary union in Europe started in 1999. This book contains eleven papers and three review essays, which analyse a spectrum of empirical, theoretical, institutional and political aspects of the design and impact of fiscal policy in EMU. The contributors are some of the most experienced analysts in the field. Topics covered include the need for and consequences of fiscal coordination, constraints on national deficits and debt levels (the Stability Pact), and the role of fiscal federalism and insurance. The importance of coordinating fiscal and monetary policies is also considered in depth. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in EMU and the development of European fiscal policy.
Reviews"...address how fiscal policy and institutions should be designed in Europe in the context of the new monetary union." Journal of Economic Literature "This volume is devoted to the complex fiscal policy implications of the European Monetary Union." Journal of Macroeconomics
