Au nom des marchés : quelle légitimité pour la révision de la
« constitution composée » de l’Union ?
Barbier, C. (2011)
Ose Paper Series, Opinion Paper No.6, December 2011, 33p.
Two years after the Lisbon Treaty entered into force, the European institutions are casting their reactions to the crisis in the form of new, non-Treaty legal instruments, requiring changes to the Treaty itself in
order to legitimise them. Similar logic is being applied to the rules of the recently revised Stability and Growth Pact: all holes are now unbarred. But that is not enough; its key principles too should be cast
into the marble of the Treaties.

Failed Remedies and Implications of the Economic Crisis in
Spain
Godino, A. and Molina, O. (2011)
Ose Paper Series, Research Paper No. 6, November 2011, 22p.
This paper critically re-examines the current debate about the crisis and exit strategies. The starting point is the need to re-focus on the structural problems facing the Spanish economy paying particular
attention to low productivity level and the reasons for it. The internal devaluation strategy imposed as a consequence of Euro membership will have a long-lasting impact upon the institutional pillars and
dominant forms of economic coordination, not to mention the consequences for democratic governance at both domestic and EU levels.
