Poland is one of Europe’s economic out-performers. The country’s history and geography encourage it to be in favour of deeper European integration. But setbacks affecting the EURO impacted Poland’s European stance with caution. Proposals for pressing ahead with deeper political integration for EMU countries – a step towards a ‘two-speed Europe’ that would leave the Poles outside, have been received reservedly in Warsaw.

The keynote address will be given by Leszek Balcerowicz<http://newsletters.bournemouth.ac.uk/t/8TY-1J6W1-524KYS-M26LA-1/c.aspx> on “Euro: problems and solutions”.  Leszek, former deputy Prime Minister, Minister of Finance and President of the National Bank of Poland, is a Professor of Economics at the Warsaw School of Economics.

This conference aims to contribute to discussions on the future shape of economic and monetary union (EMU) and the next steps ahead. Contributions on all aspects are welcome in the form of 300 word abstracts.

We aim to publish a selection of conference papers with the Palgrave/Macmillan’s book series ‘Studies in Economic Transition’.<http://newsletters.bournemouth.ac.uk/t/8TY-1EC9F-524KYS-K1P3H-1/c.aspx>
