| Summary: | The 1999 launch of the Euro reinforces the foundation for unprecedented European economic integration, encompassing 11 countries, 16 per cent of world GDP and 290 million people. However, there are many obstacles to be overcome: co-ordinated monetary and budgetary policies have yet to be defined, labour markets must become more flexible and adaptable, and the Euro-area's ability to absorb economic shocks must be strengthened. This book discusses the challenges facing the EU if it is to make a success of monetary union. |
