This course covers all major aspects of the economic policy-making in the European Union. The course will explore main issues connected to the fiscal, monetary, financial and competitive policies within the wide European economy. We will focus on relevance of individual policies, on the political and economic impetuses for various policies and their institutional set-ups. Special attention will be given to the political economy aspects of the European policy-making and to the impact of the accession countries on the EU-wide economic policy and the decision making within the enlarged union.

This is an advanced policy course and therefore it has several prerequisites. First, you will need the ability to work with (and think critically of ) various resources (lectures, seminar readings, complementary reading list, background textbook, various websites) as there is no single textbook available to cover all issues that would be up-to-date, given how fast various European reforms proceed in recent years. Second, you will need knowledge corresponding to the content of the course "European Economic Integration" (JEB026). There is only the final exam on May/June. Grading A: 90+ to 100 B: 80+ to 90 C: 70+ to 80 D: 60+ to 70 E: 50+ to 60 F: 50 or less Poslední úprava: Komárek Luboš, prof. Ing. et Ing., M.Sc., MBA, Ph.D. (17.01.2020)
