The IMK’s March 2012 Report 71e was a strong refutation of austerity economics.
This interview contains further sensible insight and policy advice.

Diverging Europe

This year’s edition of the ETUI’s flagship publication provides ample evidence that Europe is falling apart as a result of the EU leaders’ austerity mania.

In its six chapters the authors of the report highlight growing divergences between member state countries in the areas of macro-economic developments, labour markets, collective bargaining, energy policies and respect for social dialogue. These divergences are in stark contrast to the original values of European integration and convergence. In its introduction the publication warns for anti-European populism with big negative impacts on the next European elections in 2014.

The full publication as well as special infographics showing the main conclusions of the Benchmarking are available from the ETUI website
