Publication synopsis Drawing on numerous interviews with high-ranking and founding members of the ECB, Karl Kaltenthaler identifies and explains the factors that shape the domestic and international monetary strategies of the European Central Bank (ECB). The policy-making model that offers the best roadmap to a healthy economy is that of the German Bundesbank.

Offering unprecedented access to the internal decision-making at the ECB, "Policy-Making in the European Central Bank" will interest readers who want to understand this important European institution.
