"In Money and European Union, Stephen Overturf shows how Europe is integrating around money and examines the progress toward a common currency. Bringing together the economics, politics, and history of the movement toward economic and monetary union (EMU), Overturf looks at such topics as the first significant attempt of the Dolors report, and the development of the Maastricht Treaty as well as the crises that followed its signing. Money and European Union offers a long-term vision and ideological core from which the ideas and issues surrounding money and Europe can be truly understood."--Jacket.
