This volume centres on the issues surrounding the likely economic
impact that EU membership has on joining nations, with the main
emphasis on new issues and methods. Given the significantly greater
level of economic integration that now exists in the EU, accession
brings up a host of issues that either did not arise or were of
secondary importance during earlier enlargement waves. For
instance, EU membership now entails eventual membership in the
monetary union. This raises a series of new issues such as interest
rate convergence, exchange rate stability and the loss of
sovereignty over monetary policy. Additionally, these macro issues
interact with micro issues such as export performance, capital
formation and foreign direct investment (FDI). Migration,
unemployment and foreign direct investment are further issues that
acquire a magnified importance for the prospective entrants. All of
these questions are treated in the contributions in Economic Impact
of EU Membership on Entrants: New Methods and Issues that should be
of particular interest to academics as well as decisionmakers in
prospective member countries. Richard E. Baldwin worked for the
Institute of International Studies. He was a Senior Staff Economist
for the President's Council of Economic Advisors in the Bush
Administration (1990-1991) and has advised the European Commission
on several integration issues. He has also worked in the past for
the European Commission, EFTA, the OECD, the FCO, the World Bank,
USAID and UNCTAD. From 1991 to 2001 he was Co-Director of the
International Trade Programme of the Centre for Economic Policy
Research. His areas of specialisations are international trade,
regional integration, andeconomic geography. Before coming to
Geneva in May 1991, he was a professor at Columbia University
Business School, having done his PhD in economics at MIT, an MSc at
LSE, and a first degree at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Aymo Brunetti is Head of Economic Analysis in the State Secretariat
of Economic Affairs of the Federal Department of Economic Affairs,
Switzerland. In addition, he is Professor of Economics at the
University of Basel and teaches at the University of Bern,
Switzerland.
