Joseph E. Stiglitz

Opis

Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz explains why saving Europe may mean abandoning the Euro. Laying bare the European Central Bank's misguided inflation-only mandate and explaining why austerity means unending stagnation, he outlines 3 possible ways forward: fundamental reforms in the structure of the Eurozone, a well-managed end to the Euro or a new system he dubs the 'flexible Euro'.
