ABSTRACT:
The concept of fiscal union in Europe has been a subject of intense debate and discussion since the establishment of the European Union (EU). This paper examines the rationale behind fiscal union, explores the challenges and opportunities associated with its implementation, and analyzes its potential implications for member states and the EU as a whole. By understanding the underlying economic, political, and institutional dynamics, this paper aims to shed light on the path towards achieving a more integrated and resilient European economic and monetary framework.
