Reform Options for the EU Own Resources System

17 Aug 2008 00:00:00 GMT

By Friedrich Heinemann, Philipp Mohl, Steffen Osterloh

£45.00 17 Aug 2008 Paperback Physica-Verlag GmbH & Co

This study develops a reform proposal for the future revenue system of the EU budget. The findings strongly reject the idea that a reform based on an EU tax-based own resource would remedy current problems.

Against the background of the status quo analysis the authors present a reform model which includes the complete phasing out of the VAT resource, a financing of the budget completely on the basis of the GNI resource and a generalised but limited correction mechanism (GLCM). The GLCM would make a clear distinction between policies having an intentional distributive effect or not. A further element of the reform proposal is a move towards a stronger financial contribution of regions to EU spending.

By Michael Carlberg

£64.00 17 Aug 2008 Hardback Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG

The same applies to the German government and the French government. The key questions are: To what extent can the sequential process of monetary and fiscal decisions reduce the loss caused by inflation and unemployment? Is monetary and fiscal cooperation superior to the sequential process of monetary and fiscal decisions?
