This section investigates the nature and extent of the eurozone crisis  
from the perspective of International Relations and related  
disciplines. Concentrating on the international dimension of the  
crisis, we will assess the reasons for the striking intractability of  
the European sovereign debt and banking crisis, and discuss the future  
of Europe's common currency. The mechanisms of the international  
diffusion of crisis symptoms, contending beliefs regarding the causes  
and potential solutions to the euro conundrum, and transnational  
contestation against crisis management form prominent themes in the  
section. In addition, the section will consider the impact of the  
crisis for the external governance of the euro and the global standing  
of the EU. The much-debated democratic legitimacy of the actions  
undertaken to stabilize the situation is another prominent theme.

The section aims to bring together scholars from IPE, Comparative  
Political Economy, IR and European Studies so as to provide a  
comprehensive review of current research on this topic. The selection  
of papers and panels will reflect the diversity of interpretations  
across Europe, given that the debates of the issue have often a very  
specific national character in different countries with different  
themes and interpretations being emphasized. Thus, the section seeks  
to advance also the conversation across different European research  
networks. The section will also feature a roundtable on the crisis  
with prominent participants (Fritz Scharpf, Henrik Enderlein, Loukas  
Tsoukalis, et.al.)

We welcome panels and proposals on questions such as: What mechanisms,  
beliefs, groups and interests sustain (or undermine) Europe's monetary  
union? What are the implications for theories of monetary cooperation  
and regional integration? What impact had the financialisation of  
European economies and the incomplete nature of EU financial markets  
on the origins and the trajectory of the crisis? How did the crisis  
influence Europe’s standing and influence in the world?
