Summary:

Provides background information and analysis on future direction of the Eurozone, which is comprised of 16 European Union nations that share an economic and monetary union (EMU) through shared use of the euro. Discusses origins, rationale, economic significance, key provisions, and design challenges of the Eurozone. Describes persistent economic imbalances that have caused Eurozone crisis, and analyzes how these imbalances are related to inadequate adjustment mechanisms within the EMU. Reviews proposals to defuse Eurozone crisis and strengthen currency union framework; examines possible scenarios for future Eurozone development; and assesses implications of Eurozone crisis for U.S. economic and political interests.
