Popis: The EU has been experiencing over the last few years an unprecedented crisis that really touches on its core characteristics and values. The EMU project was structured on political foundations and expectations, bearing, however, immense socio-economic impact. The main aims of this paper is to identify the main driving forces that influence the future development of the Economic and Monetary Union and to examine the present situation that the EU faces, the priorities of the ECB and the challenges that EU’s Southern member-states face.
