- Abstract:
- After a five-year boom in prosperity, the transatlantic economy has fallen into what could be perhaps its deepest recession since World War II. Although the U.S. was the epicenter of the financial crisis, many European banks have exposure to U.S. subprime loans and embraced the risky lending practices of their American counterparts. The financial crisis and attendant recession underscore the deep integration of the transatlantic economy. Notions of “decoupling” are mistaken and are likely to lead to serious policy errors. Never before have Europeans and Americans had a greater stake in each other's economic success. Each has a substantial interest in the other's ability to weather current difficulties and to emerge in sound shape from the crisis.

- Abstract:
- Globalization is changing all of our lives as the pace of economic interdependence grows between developed and emerging countries. Debate thrives about whether globalization has been good or bad for European consumers, workers, companies and governments and what are the prospects in the future. In a dynamic and uncertain world currently beset by a global financial crisis and a looming recession can Europe act to take advantage of the opportunities created by globalization and mitigate its challenges? The Executive Council of the American Chamber of Commerce to the EU commissioned the study Globalization & Europe: Prospering in the New Whirled Order from Daniel Hamilton and Joseph Quinlan to contribute to the debate about globalization and to help shape Europe’s response. Given the huge importance of Germany not only in Europe but also in the global economy, the Executive Council decided to take a closer look at Germany. We asked the authors to take a series of metrics and measure the impact of globalization on Germany’s consumers, workers, companies and governments. Critically, as we are still in the midst of financial turmoil, the authors look at the relationship between globalization.
