Transformation. Oxford University Press, forthcoming 2015.

- Abstract: The euro crisis, the steps taken to manage it, and the resulting transformations have triggered a necessary
process of reconsidering economic governance in the European Union. This volume examines the many open political, legal, and economic questions related to the functioning and fundamental structure of
the Union as a whole and the economic and monetary union in particular. The contributions to this collection bring the perspectives of different academic disciplines to bear on the functional aspects
of economic governance, the institutional transformations that have taken place, and their implications for the Union’s legitimacy. A separate chapter looks at inequalities in perceptions of economic
conditions within the European Union to identify trends, particularly during the eurozone crisis. In doing so, the chapters in this volume take stock of the current situation, shed light on the
dilemmas and challenges that must be recognised and addressed, and explore options for the way ahead.

Abstract: After years of ad hoc crisis management, is the European Union on the right track? Can the European project
maintain its role as a political model? What internal and external obstacles exist? The Governance Report 2015 takes an interdisciplinary approach to explore some of these questions, including how stability in the
eurozone and the full integration of the European single market can be achieved, how new methods for consultation and decision-making have influenced the legal and institutional framework of the EU,
and how crisis management has affected the Union’s legitimacy. The concept of exploratory governance, introduced in this Report, offers an approach to understand the complexities of decision-making
processes in the wake of the euro crisis. In addition, a set of governance indicators measuring the convergence or divergence of EU member states in key outcomes over time can help to inform policy
and analysis. Ultimately, the Report seeks answers to the question of what can make the European Union succeed, fail, or muddle through from a governance perspective.

August 2015. A previous version is available as CESIFO Working Paper No. 5319
[DOWNLOAD PDF]
Abstract: We study the occurrence of holdout litigation in the context of sovereign defaults. The number of creditor
lawsuits against foreign governments has strongly increased over the past decades, but there is a large variation across crisis events. Why are some defaults followed by a “run to the courthouse” and
others not? What explains the general increase in lawsuits? We address these questions based on an economic model of litigation and a new dataset capturing the near-universe of cases filed against
defaulting sovereigns. We find that creditors are more likely to litigate in large debt restructurings, when governments impose high losses (“haircuts”), and when the defaulting country is more
vulnerable to litigation (open economies and those with a low legal capacity). We conclude that sovereign debt lawsuits can be predicted reasonably well with a simple framework from the law and
economics literature.

Abstract: Dieser Aufsatz beschreibt
unterschiedliche Typen von Staatsbankrotten und weist auf Veränderungen seit der Mitte der 1990er Jahre hin. Er zeigt, warum das Thema für die internationale und vergleichende politische Ökonomie von
Bedeutung ist, warum aber gerade die empirische Literatur an erheblichen Mängeln leidet. Ein Staatsbankrott beschreibt sehr unterschiedliche Phänomene, die hier anhand von 11 Kriterien dargestellt
werden. Der Aufsatz stützt sich auf drei neue Datensätze, die deskriptiv auf Veränderungsprozesse hin ausgewertet werden. Dabei wird deutlich, dass sich bei ökonomischen Charakteristika, im
juristischen und politisch-institutionellen Kontext sowie bei den Rahmenbedingungen im internationalen Finanzmarkt wichtige Veränderungen ergeben haben, die von der Forschung aufgegriffen werden
sollten.

Abstract: Ausgeprägte Wirtschafts- und
Finanzmarktkrisen verstärken die Probleme kollektiver Entscheidungsfindung in Demokratien. Der Aufsatz stellt eine Typologie zu Entscheidungsmodi und Legitimation der Wirtschaftspolitik in normalen
Zeiten und Krisenzeiten auf. Er zeigt, dass in Krisen wegen der verstärkt auftretenden zeitlichen Inkonsistenzen in Kombination mit hoher Verteilungsungewissheit eine „ad-hoc Technokratisierung“ der
Wirtschaftspolitik entsteht. Die faktische Abspaltung wirtschaftspolitischer Entscheidungen vom input-basierten Legitimationsprozess ist demokratietheoretisch relevant, weil die
Verteilungsimplikationen der Krisenpolitik in der Regel sehr hoch sind. Das resultierende „Demokratiedefizit“ ist allerdings nicht als Symptom der „Postdemokratie“ zu sehen, sondern als Folge der
spezifischen wirtschaftspolitischen Anforderungen im Krisenkontext.

International Money and Finance, Vol. 31(2), pp. 250-266.
Abstract: This paper measures “debt disputes” between governments and foreign private creditors in periods of
sovereign debt crises. We construct an index of government coerciveness, consisting of 9 objective sub-indicators. Each of these sub-indicators captures unilateral government actions imposed on
foreign banks and bondholders. The results provide the first systematic account of debt crises that goes beyond a binary categorization of default versus non-default. Overall, government behavior and
rhetoric show a strong variability, ranging from highly confrontational to very smooth crisis resolution processes. In a preliminary analysis on the determinants of coercive behavior, we find
political institutions to be significant, while economic and financial factors play a lesser role. These results open up an agenda for future research.
>> Enderlein, Henrik and Amy Verdun: „EMU’s teenage challenge:
what have we learned and can we predict from political science?“, in Journal of European Public Policy, 16:4, 2009, pp. 490-507
- Abstract: We review the initial predictions and claims regarding economic and monetary union (EMU) in Europe against the
evidence of its first ten years of existence. We argue that pessimistic views on the creation of EMU have proved to be wrong. Yet EMU's success is rather puzzling, since it is based on a peculiar
institutional structure not thought to lead to success. EMU has generated redistributive effects and may have increased business-cycle synchronization. Those effects have
not translated into the expected decrease of legitimacy or a widespread democratic deficit of EMU. At the institutional level, EMU has coped well with an asymmetric framework, largely decoupling EMU
from political union. There have been neither major spill-over effects pushing for further political integration nor conflict and disintegration. The main question for the future is whether this
institutional structure will stay the same in the aftermath of the global financial crisis.

Policy, 13: 7, 2006, pp. 1133-1146
- Abstract: The technical and institutional achievements of Economic and Monetary Union in Europe (EMU) are just the
necessary condition for its overall success: the sufficient condition implies a widespread acceptance of the spillover effects triggered by EMU for other areas of economic policy-making, such as
possible redistributive effects across euro-area member states. The article notes that much of the recent academic debate on EMU's legitimacy can be reduced to differences in assumptions on those
effects. It thus calls for resuming the debate with a specific emphasis on analysing data that would provide information on observable spillover effects from EMU and allow for more solid arguments in
that debate.

impact of monetary union on domestic fiscal and wage-setting institutions”, in European Union Politics 7/1, March 2006, pp. 113-140.
- Abstract: The article suggests an explanation for seemingly diverse patterns of change in domestic economic
institutions following the establishment of Economic and Monetary Union (EMU). It argues that EMU participants redesigned ill-fitting domestic fiscal and wage-setting institutions in order to counter
the anticipated destabilizing effects of the ‘one size fits all’ monetary policy of the European Central Bank (ECB). After outlining the argument, the article identifies general economic and
institutional conditions that are required for the use of fiscal and wage-setting institutions as effective stabilizers in a monetary union. It then undertakes a comparative assessment to detect
country-specific mismatches between anticipated needs and the available domestic economic institutions. Finally, the article surveys institutional changes in 10 member states between the mid 1990s
and 2002 and shows that the observed institutional adjustments largely correspond to the expected correction of initial mismatches.

- Abstract: This paper reviews current
discussions on reforming the European Union (EU) budgetary procedure and assesses the main reform proposals that have been suggested thus far. It argues that prospects for reforms are presently
hampered by the complex interplay between supranational and intergovernmental decision modes and the requirement of any budgetary procedure to strike a balance between efficiency and legitimacy. The
paper reviews the main criticisms of the present budgetary procedure and the related reform proposals, which are assessed on the basis of relevant theoretical literature as well as brief comparisons
with the federal budget of the United States. The paper argues that the current EU budgetary procedure maximises efficiency and legitimacy, given the present state of political integration in the EU.
Significant modifications to the budgetary procedure would depart from that equilibrium.
