The ongoing process of European integration
has led to the individual European national
economies – that is to say their financial and goods
markets – becoming more closely interwoven. As a
result, decisions (or failure to take decisions) on economic
policy by individual countries no longer simply
have an impact on their domestic economies but can
also have a significant effect on the growth and economic
situation of every country in the eurozone. Today
more than ever, the eurozone countries all share
a common fate – in good times and bad. On the one
hand, they all benefit from a particular country’s economic
strength, but on the other hand they are all affected
by another country’s economic weakness. For
this reason, it is essential to intensify the debate on
economic growth in the member states. This will promote
a mutual understanding of each country’s growth
and open up a common European perspective that will
help the member states to be more competitive and to
maintain the stability of the single currency.
