ISSUES OF THE WORLD REGIONS

EUROPE

Untitled Slide

• More than six million jobs were lost from 2008-13 and poverty has increased. Policymakers face three main challenges. First, addressing unemployment and poverty should remain a high priority not only for its own sake, but because these problems undermine public debt sustainability and growth. Second, bold policies in various areas are required. Most labour, social and fiscal policies are the responsibility of member states, requiring national reforms. But better coordination of demand management at European level is also necessary in order to create jobs. Third, tax/benefit systems should be reviewed for improved efficiency, inter- generational equity and fair burden sharing between the wealthy and poor. http://www.bruegel.org/publications/publication-detail/publication/823-euro...
