Abstract

We interpret fairness as a requirement of appeal, desirability and justice that involves reference to concepts of both equity and efficiency. Institutions play a central role in ensuring it. We also look for appropriate microeconomic and macroeconomic indicators. Some of them enter the EU goals for Europe 2020, but others should be added to these. We look at the performance of the EU and EMU in terms of the indicators before and after the crisis and suggest some principles for a design of institutional reforms aimed at improving fairness.
