Book Description
The advent of the euro was a revolution for the 340 million people who exchanged their former currencies – considered a fundamental element of national sovereignty – for this new single currency. Encouraged by some who believe that its introduction gives more cohesion and strength to Europe in an increasingly globalized economy, the euro is criticized by others who believe that the constraints it imposes are a source of austerity and favor northern European countries at the expense of countries in the south. The Future of the Euro Currency traces the evolution of the monetary policy which the European Central Bank instituted at a time when economic, monetary and financial crises were legion. The book presents, as objectively as possible, the advantages and disadvantages of this new currency, while considering the improvements that could promote its durability.

Book Description
Joseph Stiglitz propose ici un constat implacable. Il s'interroge comment en est-on arrivé à consacrer une monnaie qui était conçue pour rapprocher les peuples et amener la prospérité mais qui a fini par les diviser et plomber leur économie ? La crise de 2008 a agi tel un révélateur en faisant ressortir les défauts originels du projet économique de l'Union européenne. L'intégration économique avait surpassé le projet politique en se construisant sur des bases qui favorisent les divergences plutôt que la convergence. La question qui se pose très sérieusement est alors : peut-on encore sauver l'euro ? En mettant en évidence la mauvaise gouvernance de la Banque centrale européenne et en expliquant pourquoi l'austérité a condamné l'Europe à la stagnation sans fin, Joseph Stiglitz porte ici un diagnostic sévère sur la situation actuelle. Il explique pourquoi l'euro était vicié dès sa naissance et il propose des scénarios concrets - en explorant notamment la piste d'un euro flexible - pour sortir de cette impasse, qui touche près de 350 millions d'européens. Avec L'Euro. Comment la monnaie unique menace l'avenir de l'Europe, Joseph Stiglitz tire la sonnette d'alarme et exhorte ici les Européens à reprendre en main leur destin commun en cessant de louvoyer, au risque d'aggraver plus profondément encore la crise actuelle.

Les élections européennes 40 ans après – The European Elections, 40 years later
Author: Tony Marguery
Publisher: Bruylant
ISBN: 2802768352
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 424
Book Description
En 2019, 40 ans après la première élection des membres du Parlement européen au suffrage universel direct en 1979, les citoyens de l’Union étaient une neuvième fois appelés aux urnes. Entre ces deux dates, le Parlement européen a profondément changé, passant d’une simple assemblée consultative au colégislateur de droit commun d’une Union européenne en proie à de nombreuses crises. Les contributions au présent ouvrage, tirées des travaux d’un colloque international qui s’est tenu à l’Université de Bordeaux les 9 et 10 mai 2019, entendent dresser le bilan, les enjeux et les perspectives, tant des élections européennes de 2019 que de la démocratie représentative européenne de façon globale. In 2019, 40 years after the first election of members of the European Parliament by direct universal suffrage in 1979, the citizens of the Union were called to the polls for the ninth time. Between these two dates, the European Parliament changed dramatically, from a mere consultative assembly to the ordinary co-legislator of a European Union plagued by many crises. This book draws on an international conference held at the University of Bordeaux on May 9 and 10, 2019. The various contributions therein intend to take stock, examine the challenges and envisage the prospects, not only of the 2019 European elections but also of representative European democracy in general.

The Effects of Financial Crises on the Binding Force of Contracts - Renegotiation, Rescission or Revision
Author: Başak Başoğlu
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 331927256X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
This book is about one of the most controversial dilemmas of contract law: whether or not the unexpected change of circumstances due to the effects of financial crises may under certain conditions be taken into account. Growing interconnectedness of global economies facilitates the spread of the effects of the financial crises. Financial crises cause severe difficulties for persons to fulfill their contractual obligations. During the financial crises, performance of contractual obligations may become excessively onerous or may cause an excessive loss for one of the contracting parties and consequently destroy the contractual equilibrium and legitimate the governmental interventions. Uncomfortable economic climate leads to one of the most controversial dilemmas of the contract law: whether the binding force of the contract is absolute or not. In other words, unstable economic circumstances impose the need to devote special attention to review and perhaps to narrow the binding nature of a contract. Principle of good faith and fair dealing motivate a variety of theoretical bases in order to overcome the legal consequences of financial crises. In this book, all these theoretical bases are analyzed with special focus on the available remedies, namely renegotiation, rescission or revision and the circumstances which enables the revocation of these remedies. The book collects the 19 national reports and the general report originally presented in the session regarding the Effects of Financial Crises on the Binding Force of Contracts: Renegotiation, Rescission or Revision during the XIXth congress of the International Academy of Comparative Law, held in Vienna, July 2014.

Democratic Politics in a European Union Under Stress
Author: Olaf Cramme
Publisher:
ISBN: 0198724489
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 273
Book Description
This book offers the first comprehensive political analysis of the Euro crisis that erupted in Greece in 2010 and subsequently threatened the very survival of the Euro area. It has left a profound mark on democratic politics all over Europe, changing public attitudes and voting preferences, institutional and societal norms, and deeply anchored political traditions. The contributors to this volume reveal the extent to which policymakers are torn between the pressures emanating from financial markets and the demands put forward by their own constituents; how they struggle to reconcile national preferences with wider European interests; and how a polarized and politicized Union seeks to maintain some degree of cohesion. The emerging picture is that of a European Union under serious stress, transformed by new governance structures and a shifting balance of power. In response, the authors evaluate the prospects of a more legitimate and democratic Europe. They provide a rich and pluralist set of new analyses and proposals, aimed at understanding and navigating the myriad tensions which surround the EU in the aftermath of the crisis. If the European project is to regain the trust of its citizens, such considerations must take a central place in public debate.
