Stiglitz: How to save a broken euro | EurActiv
“The euro can be saved, but it will take more than fine speeches
asserting a commitment to Europe. If Germany and others are not willing
to do what it takes – if there is not enough solidarity to make politics
work – then the euro may have to be abandoned for the sake of salvaging
the European project,” argues Joseph Stiglitz.
Joseph Stiglitz is an American economist and a professor at
Columbia University. A recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economic
Sciences, he is also a former senior vice-president and chief economist
of the World Bank.“
