Euroland and the World Economy de Jörg Bibow

Euroland and the World Economy: Global Player or Global Drag?

Jörg Bibow

Andrea Terzi

This book takes a broad perspective to challenge orthodox views about the role of Euroland in the world economy, providing a comprehensive framework to address important questions for the future of the Euro, including the key question: will the single currency contribute to world economic dynamism or be driven by the vigour and vitality of others?
