Abstract

The creation of a European banking union has been put forward as part of the solution to the Eurozone crisis. Michelle Everson argues that a banking union is not a viable solution because it represents a further weakening of democratic structures and a reduction in political accountability. The real crisis, she concludes, is the trend toward increasingly technocratic forms of governance in Europe.
