"A book of depth and subtlety that is helpful in understanding matters well outside the questions it seems to address.... This is a fascinating and informative book."
--Geoffrey Wood, Central Banking Journal
"The advent of the Euro is a singular event in monetary history. This is the best and most important book so far on an experiment with profound economic and geopolitical implications."
--Lawrence H. Summers, former Secretary of the U.S. Treasury
"International divergences in economic policy are as much the result of differences in intellectual frameworks as of variation in economic circumstances. This valuable book explains the critical differences in national economic philosophies and how they have conditioned policy choices over the past decade."
--Ben S. Bernanke, former Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve
"[The Euro and the Battle of Ideas] demonstrates the value of sophisticated syntheses of policy analysis and intellectual history."
--Foreign Affairs
"The advent of the Euro is a singular event in monetary history. This is the best and most important book so far on an experiment with profound economic and geopolitical implications."--Lawrence H. Summers, former Secretary of the U.S. Treasury
"I very much appreciate this book's efforts to explain the highly diverse approaches to economic and fiscal policy in Europe and to shape them into a common strategy. If this could succeed in reality in today's Europe, much would be gained indeed."--Wolfgang Schäuble, Finance Minister of Germany
"International divergences in economic policy are as much the result of differences in intellectual frameworks as of variation in economic circumstances. This valuable book explains the critical differences in national economic philosophies and how they have conditioned policy choices over the past decade."--Ben S. Bernanke, former Chairman of the U.S. Federal Reserve
"Europeans have lost their sense of direction. Most demand increased sovereignty without considering what it takes to live under the same roof. Another cause of disaffection is that interests have diverged so much that we are no longer behind the veil of ignorance. This book offers a complementary, brand-new, third angle on the crisis of European institutions: cultural differences between France and Germany that developed following World War II. Nations interpret their interests through the lens of their worldview. This exciting historical, sociological, and psychological fresco, which also covers the visions of other countries and multilateral organizations, is a must-read for all who want to understand where Europe is heading--and how worldviews can get in the way of international cooperation."--Jean Tirole, Nobel Laureate in Economics
"This rich and articulate work is an important addition to the existing books about the Eurozone crisis. The authors identify the core intellectual and political differences framing the debate regarding the institutional developments required for Eurozone survival."--Giancarlo Corsetti, University of Cambridge
