This book examines the political costs of monetary union in Europe.
It does so by gauging the degree to which four small European
states - Iceland, Latvia, Hungary and Ireland - employed their
monetary policies in response to the financial crisis. Contrary to
popular and academic perception, Moses finds that small states in
Europe still enjoy monetary policy autonomy, and this autonomy was
used to prioritise the needs of domestic constituents over those of
international markets. Eurozone member states, by contrast, pursued
policies that prioritised the (long-term) needs of international
lenders and European institutions, at the (short-term) expense of
their own constituents. By illustrating the degree to which
monetary policy autonomy still plays an effective role in
responding to economic shocks, this book documents the substantial
sacrifices that states have made in joining a suboptimum currency
area. These are the political costs of monetary union in Europe.
