Convergence and coordination in the EU: A dynamic games approach

This is a normative study with theoretical and empirical aspects of the impact of the M aastricht Treaty's (1991) convergence conditions. The study is carried out in a dynamic game context. Starting from the Treaty, four possible scenarios are compared: a noncooperative scenario, a cooperative scenario, a noncooperative convergence scenario and a cooperative convergence scenario. In these last two scenarios, the EU Member States pursue a restricted policy. This restriction is implied by the convergence criteria.
