Building the New Europe: Volume 1: The Single Market and Monetary Unification

Single market and monetary integration of EEC countries, Germany's reunification and Central and East Europe's move towards the marketplace are redesigning the european political and economic spheres and creating great opportunities and challenges for Europe and the rest of the world. Europe in the nineties will take a new international policy direction, which may serve to strengthen supranationalism. The Community as a whole must ensure that these new steps make it possible to reconcile the economic interests of countries on the continent and in the rest of the world. This book deals with the problems raised by this process and is divided into three sections: the first section comprises five essays on fundamental themes of single-market process; the second section is devoted to the issue of monetary unification and the third and final section studies the connections between the 'new' Europe and the rest of the world.
