  • DEFENDING the WOLF the Useful Contradiction of the Bundesbank Carlo Bastasin
    DEFENDING THE WOLF The Useful Contradiction of the Bundesbank Carlo Bastasin SEP Policy Brief No. 1 - 2014 The Deutsche Bundesbank, the German central bank, is commonly regarded as the Euroarea's boogeyman. The pressure imparted by the German monetary authority, for instance, rendered the European Central Bank reluctant to follow the footprints of the Federal Reserve and of other central banks, and engage in non- standard monetary policy measures that might rapidly put an end to the crisis that has been plaguing the euro zone. At several stages, during the current crisis, the ECB has been forced to take actions and prevent severe economic and financial dislocations. Given the institutional vacuum at the area-wide level and the lack of political capacity of the other institutions, the European Central Bank had often to move across the borders of its traditional domain. This has given reason to a slew of criticisms repeatedly and loudly voiced by the Bundesbank. Being also the most vocal policy actor evoking the fiscal risks associated with effecting implicit cross-border transfers via the ECB's balance sheet, the Bundesbank has appeared to have a “non- monetary” hidden agenda or even a “national political” mission. In fact, the Bundesbank has regularly appealed to two fundamental principles of sound economic and monetary policy management that cannot be easily overlooked by anybody concerned that monetary policy may lose its ability to preserve price stability. Should monetary independence be eroded by the increasing tasks devolved to the central banks, wider economic and political consequences might then arise. The first principle is the need to avoid fiscal dominance, not allowing inflation to be determined by the level of fiscal debts; the second is the “principle of responsibility” that sees a contradiction if individual responsibility is blurred by the intervention of joint liability as in the case of a State running unsound fiscal policies and being automatically bailed out by the mutualization of its liabilities.

  • How Macron Won It All the French President As Master Kingmaker
    How Macron Won It All The French president as master kingmaker. he French did it again. By recalling Christine Lagarde, who has served as managing director of the International Monetary Fund since 2011, from Washington and throwing her into the race to succeed Mario Draghi as By Klaus C. Engelen head of the European Central Bank, French President Emanuel Macron effectively won the real power game in the competition for the top European positions after the May elections for the European Parliament. But since Macron helped nominate, in a big surprise, Ursula von der Leyen, Tthe Brussels-born francophone long-time member of German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government, to lead the new EU Commission, the disappoint- ment in Germany of not seeing Bundesbank President Jens Weidmann chosen as Draghi’s successor may have been somewhat mitigated. HOW MACRON GOT THE POLE POSITION When the race for the new EU chief executive began, the French presi- dent started questioning the system of Spitzenkandidaten (lead candidates). Macron referred to the Lisbon Treaty, which left the Council in the lead role to select and propose a candidate whom the European Parliament then would have to confirm with an absolute majority. The Council consists of the heads of state or governments of the member countries, together with its president and the president of the Commission. In Macron’s view, the 2014 European election, when the center-right European People’s Party got Jean-Claude Juncker elected Commission president with the help of the Progressive Alliance for Socialist and Democrats, was THE MAGAZINE OF INTERNATIONAL ECONOMIC POLICY an aberration to be corrected.
