Description: Why is Germany prepared to sacrifice the deutsche mark for European Monetary Union? Peter Henning Loedel's novel analysis, incorporating domestic, European, and global aspects of German monetary policy, suggests that the institutional relationship between the Bundesbank and the federal government, together with Germany's bargaining strategies toward European and global monetary-governance structures, can provide the answer to the deutsche mark puzzle.
