Liberalization And Politics Of Environmental Management In Tanzania, Alicia Bosensera Magabe
Liberalization And Politics Of Environmental Management In Tanzania, Alicia Bosensera Magabe
LLM Theses and Essays

Legal Foundations And Institutional Framework Of The Monetary Union In Europe And In The United States, Johan Van Den Cruijce
LLM Theses and Essays
An economic and monetary union (EMU) is an area where there is complete freedom of movement of persons, goods, services, and capital. The financial markets in an EMU are completely integrated while the national currencies are conventional and have fixed exchange rates. Ultimately the national currencies may be replaced by a common currency and there will be one monetary policy. The EMU is considered to be the highest form of economic integration. This paper examines two examples of a monetary union; the first part focuses on the blueprint for a European monetary union as laid out in the Treaty on …
