Summary

"The European Central Bank is a unique creation in world history: an independent central bank managing one currency - the euro - which has been adopted in twelve member states of the European Union. The monetary policy decisions of the ECB thus directly affect the lives of roughly 300 million people living in the eurozone and have a significant impact on many more. Providing an excellent synthesis of existing research, new research and insights, David Howarth and Peter Loedel explore the theoretical approaches to the ECB. Many issues are covered, including: the antecedents of European monetary authority

the different national perspectives on central bank independence

the complex organisation of the bank

the issues of accountability

and the difficult first years of the ECB in operation."--BOOK JACKET
