EUROPE 2017: MAKE IT OR BREAK IT?
|
Policy Brief
|
|
|
ISPI, SoG and SEP (LUISS) have jointly produced the Policy Brief "Europe 2017: Make It or Break It?".This paper argues that economic and political efforts are needed to produce a set of European public goods, which would be dependent on gradually enlarged and reorganized EU resources. In particular, the banking and capital markets union can provide public goods which may help balance risk reduction and risk sharing policies. The production of European public goods should be a preliminary step in the reform of the EU institutions, with a view to creating a federal union (not a federal state) with a neater supranationalization of certain policies and a clearer distinction between supranational responsibilities and policies that member states must enact with full autonomy.
