Reviews

`This volume draws the links between social cohesion within European countries and economic convergence to their best performing peers. It deals comprehensively with various dimensions of the catching-up process of middle-income countries in Europe. While the countries in Central, Eastern and Southeastern Europe (CESEE) survived the financial crisis reasonably better than the periphery of the euro area, both need to adjust to new external conditions. With this formidable challenge in mind, the authors present sophisticated appraisals of the central questions and provide incisive analyses of the policy implications for individual CESEE countries and for the euro area and its member states. This book is of great topical relevance and deserves to command a wide audience including both specialists and non-specialists.' -- Pierre Moscovici, European Commission, Economic and Financial Affairs, Taxation and Customs
