Abstract

Chapter 5 starts with an analysis of the establishment and normalization of the European “bailout regime” in the Euro crisis. In 2010, member states of the Eurogroup and EU institutions devised exceptional emergency credit facilities and created the so-called troika to devise and implement harsh austerity measures in recipient states. A combination of rhetorical and institutional power advantages for the authority-holders explains why the regime was ratcheted up despite the widespread resistance of societal actors. Second, the chapter analyzes the European Central Bank’s (ECB) adoption of the role of a lender of last resort to sovereigns of the Eurozone. With the Securities Markets Programme in 2010, the ECB circumvented the monetary financing prohibition and began to intervene in the fiscal and economic policymaking of recipient states. While the Bank’s emergency measures were highly contentious, it successfully deployed arguments of necessity and functionality to stabilize and even ramp up its powers.
欧元危机中的紧急政治
第五章首先分析了欧元危机中欧洲“救助机制”的建立和正常化。2010年,欧元集团成员国和欧盟机构设计了特殊的紧急信贷安排,并创建了所谓的三驾马车,在受援国设计和实施严厉的紧缩措施。当权者的修辞优势和体制权力优势的结合,解释了为什么尽管社会行动者普遍抵制,政权仍在逐步加强。第二章分析了欧洲央行扮演欧元区主权国家最后贷款人的角色。通过2010年的证券市场计划(Securities Markets Programme),欧洲央行绕开了货币融资禁令,开始干预受援国的财政和经济政策制定。虽然世界银行的紧急措施争议很大,但它成功地运用了必要性和功能性的论点,以稳定甚至扩大其权力。
