This book is a Festschrift to Annamaria Simonazzi and embraces the
themes that she has contributed to over the years through her
insightful and inspiring works. It brings together contributions
from a number of distinguished European economists, which pay
tribute to her by engaging in a dialogue with her research,
simultaneously reflecting on the process of growing economic
disintegration in the European Union, its causes and its possible
remedies. The book shows the deep interrelations between
macroeconomic issues and the social sphere, and points to the need
to rethink the very foundations of European economic policies as an
effective antidote to growing imbalances and disintegration. In
particular, the effects of austerity are assessed alongside the
dimensions of inequality, gender discrimination, poverty, and
unemployment, broadening the perspective also beyond the Eurozone.
The authors envision a progressive society, in which investments in
research and intelligent industrial policies govern the processes
of technological change and drive the economy towards a more
efficient and more equal model of development characterized by high
productivity and high wages. While some chapters deal directly with
policy issues, policy suggestions and proposals are scattered
throughout the whole book. This volume will appeal to academics,
economists, and policy-makers interested in understanding the
policy response of European institutions to the challenges posed by
both the Great Recession and subsequent developments in the
European economies. The book is written in an engaging and
accessible way, and the themes are broad enough to generate
interest from the international public.
