About this Event
This conference examines the extent to which, and ways in which, European financial integration, monetary and political union, and EU enlargement have affected the functions, structures and power of European central banks. It sets these 'Europeanization' processes in their wider global context, using the United States and Australia and New Zealand as 'control' cases, and addresses four key questions:
- What has been the role of Economic and Monetary Union in changing European central banking?
- To what extent, in what ways, are Europeanization processes discernible in European central banking?
- What does it mean for the power of European central bankers?
- Has the Euro Area been associated with convergence in European central banking? Are different 'clusters' of central banks emerging?
The conference offers an opportunity to listen to drafts of chapters for a forthcoming Oxford University Press book.
