Quo Vadis, Euro?

Emília Zimková

Abstract

Europe faces significant challenges. The economic ones are by far the most severe, yet there are moral, social, and philosophical issues as well. European economists are still busy trying to remedy the great crisis by monetary bridging, focusing only on liquidity, and buying time. The solution awaits either the tighter integration, or the break-up, of the euro area. This paper presents alternative scenarios of the future in the euro zone, and thus Europe. More intensely now, than ever before in the past, Europeans expect antidotes to such matters, embracing their lives in a much broader sense, involving morality, philosophy, as well as social issues (ex. the ageing of Europe).(original abstract)
