Explaining attitudes towards the euro: design of a cross-national study
Article Abstract:
The European Union has long dreamed of establishing Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) since the late 1960s. The EMU was expected to produce political, economic and social benefits for member countries. However, a survey of attitudes towards the euro showed differences over such projected gains. The perception of negative or positive benefits is conditioned by the perceived equity to concerned countries.
