Arguing that EMU is disproportionately socially expensive for many of the present and potential member states, Tal Sadeh's rigorous analysis focuses on the problematic implications of the EU's economic and political diversity. Sadeh is particularly concerned with the domestic structural and institutional reforms that will be necessary to sustain EMU. His supporting quantitative data covers 43 countries: all of the EU member states, the candidate countries, and the EU's neighbors in the Middle East, North Africa, and Eastern Europe.
“Theoretically and empirically rich.... The range of his findings is impressive.” —David Howarth, EUSA Review
"This is a good book.... Sadeh addresses an important and somewhat neglected topic: the continued viability of EMU."—David H. Bearce
