On the Endogeneity Properties of EMU
نویسندگان
چکیده
Using annual bilateral data over the period 1988-2011 for a panel of 24 industrialised and emerging economies, we analyse in a time-varying framework the determinants of output synchronisation in EMU (European Monetary Union) distinguishing between core and peripheral member states. The results support the specialisation paradigm rather than the endogeneity hypothesis. Evidence is found in the euro period of diverging patterns between the core and the peripheral EMU countries raising questions about the future stability of EMU.

The accession of several Central and Eastern European Countries to Euroland is likely to be realised within the next years. Some studies aim at analysing the suitability of these Euro aspirants for currency union with EMU by evaluating the related macroeconomic costs. Still, they are prone to the Lucas critique since they do not consider endogeneity of the relevant criteria. We build on methodo...
متن کاملEuropean economic and monetary integration, and the optimum currency area theory
This essay follows the synergies and complementarities between European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) and the optimum currency area (OCA) theory. Various advancements in economic theory and econometrics have made it possible to progress from the “early OCA theory” to a “new OCA theory”. The balance of judgements has shifted in favour of monetary union: it is deemed to generate fewer costs a...
متن کاملEffect of fuel content on structural and magnetic properties of solution combusted Mn0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4 powders
Single phase Mn0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4 powders were synthesized by solution combustion method. The solution combustion method relies on the exothermic self-sustained reactions in reactive solution containing of oxidizers and organic fuels. In this work, the effects of various amounts of glycine as fuel on the powder characteristics were investigated. The structure, cation distribution, microstructure, ma...
متن کاملSynthesise of CoFe2O4-Polyaniline Nanocomposite and Evaluation of its Magnetic Properties
Particles of Cobalt ferrite, CoFe2O4-, were coated with polyaniline (PANI) sulphate and phosphate during in-situ polymerization of aniline in an aqueous solution of sulfuric and phosphoric acid. The PANI-ferrite composites were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Structures and morphology of products were studied by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Micr...
متن کاملEffect of Heat Treatment on Structural and Magnetic Properties of Nanocrystalline SrFe12O19 Hexaferrite synthesized by Co-Precipitation Method
Nanocrystalline strontium hexaferrite (SrFe12O19) powders have been successfully synthesized using the facile Co-precipitation method. The ferrite precursors were achieved from mixtures of strontium and ferric chloride in an aqueous medium without any surfactant and soft template. The as-received powders were calcined at 800 and 1000 ˚C for 2 hours in air. The final powders were characterized b...
