Abstract

La recente crisi dell'eurozona, insieme all?annunciata riforma del franco della Comunità Finanziaria Africana e ai progetti di costituzione di nuove aree valutarie in diversi continenti, ha riportato il tema delle unioni monetarie in primo piano nel dibattito economico. La presente introduzione intende mostrare come i contributi contenuti in questo numero speciale arricchiscano tale dibattito. The recent eurozone crisis, together with the announced reform of the African Financial Community franc and plans to establish new currency areas in different continents, brought the issue of monetary unions back to the fore in the economic debate. The present introduction aims at showing how the contributions contained in this special issue can consistently enrich this debate.
