Conflict Potentials in Monetary Unions
Conflict Potentials in Monetary Unions
As revealed here, monetary unification is not always a smooth process. The evidence is taken from many countries and from different episodes in time; from the foundation of the US monetary union in the 18th century to the euro referendum in Sweden in the first years of the 21st century.
