Author Description

John Usher, in this thorough and analytical study, draws together various strands of European Community Law under the common theme of monetary law. He examines financial services, banking, investment, the monetary union, the monetary system, and capital movements to explain the legal framework behind the development of the Economic Monetary System, and to see how the Maastricht provisions may be related to both the development of the internal market and the previous institutional structure. This is a subject which is of fundamental importance in the Single Market and beyond, and as such demands careful knowledgeable analysis.
