Reforming the Eurozone: Prospects and Challenges

Against the background of the fervently discussed reform of the Eurozone, this ZEW Lunch Debate will consider a number of questions. These include: Creating an EMU reform package that not only makes economic sense but which both Northern and Southern Europe can agree on; finding a way to effectively combine stabilising elements with elements that ensure a certain degree of self-reliance; precisely defining the responsibilities of a potential European Finance Minister; determining the main priorities of a Eurozone budget.

This Lunch Debate is jointly organised by ZEW and EconPol Europe (European Network for Economic and Fiscal Policy Research).
