    Abstract

    This paper presents the various economic approaches to achieving monetary union, particularly in the context of European Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). It also evaluates the implications of the Maastricht Treaty, in the light of the current state of economic convergence and given the economic convergence criteria embodied in the Treaty, in terms of economic policy for individual Member States and for the European Union (EU) as a whole. Comparisons are made with other more mature federations, and a case for greater fiscal federalism post-1999 is presented. The paper concludes by assessing the options for the EU at its scheduled inter-governmental conference in 1996, for amending or replacing the Treaty.
