Opis

First published in 1999, this volume recognises that in the course of European integration, national economic policy makers lose some effective policy instruments and the contributors to this omnibus volume analyse the 'room for maneuvering' available to national and EU economic and social policies under the conditions of the Economic and Monetary Union (EMU).
