Re: My field is development economics ... (none / 1)

What do you make of the arguments that a strong Euro is going to kill the Italian economy?

Nothing some appropriate transfers from the rest of the Eurozone can't fix.

A lot of ideological baggage needs to be dropped in the European Union before that can happen.

Maybe Italy should do some structural changes in its economy instead?

What Coleman said ... (none / 1)

... I reckon the EU can manage it ... and if it can't, I'm not close enough to the facts on the ground to work out what the pitfalls are.

Of course, whether it will or not, that is always an open question, but I reckon it can be done.

I've been accused of being a Marxist, yet while Harpo's my favourite, it's Groucho I'm always quoting. Odd, that.
